Music education pedagogy

 

Hello!

Today we will talk about a very important issue: how music lessons affect the development of your child's brain, about the interaction of the brain and work with all fingers: Piano, fine motor skills and the child's brain.

From preschool age to elementary school, learning music and the active interaction of all fingers of both hands with the keys forms a huge number of neural connections in both hemispheres and creates faster communication between them.

This is extremely important for the development of a healthy, intelligent and balanced child. Balanced - able to perceive information with both hemispheres at the same time.

From the age of two, every child should try to start using both hands when playing an instrument. The corpus callosum, which connects the hemispheres of the brain, develops more intensively with the help of piano lessons. Simultaneous work of both hands and fingers of both hands causes neurons to connect into the largest number of "tracks", which turns the "corpus callosum" into a powerful conductor "track" compared to a single-track road ...

This "track" will help the child to avoid "traffic jams" not only in learning, but also in the most important life situations.

A developed "corpus callosum" is a treasure. There is no better gift you can give a baby for life. By uniting the hemispheres responsible for abstract and logical thinking (left) and for feeling, space, time, intuition (right), we contribute to the development of an "unsinkable" catamaran - a mind that can creatively and extraordinary cope with any tasks.

It is no coincidence that pediatricians and teachers from around the world talk a lot about the need to develop a child's fine motor skills.

My method raises the development of fine motor skills to a new level and gives it a new meaning: we propose to develop a child not only by buttoning buttons, untying and tying shoelaces, but by playing musical (including classical!) pieces.

This type of education is many times superior to all existing methods of development and education of children.
