Babies and Toddlers

Babies recognize the melody of a song early on and before they understand the words. Studies find that music therapy improves vital signs and feeding for babies and young children. It also boosts oxygen levels, increases oxytocin, and helps with overall development. In addition, music-making with their children can reduce parents’ stress and anxiety and assist with continued bonding.
