Thankfully, in preschool, music is designed to be a positive learning tool. Your child will most certainly receive opportunities to be around music in the childcare setting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Even better, though, music can be positively incorporated at home! There are <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/childdevelopmentinfo.com\/development\/music-is-an-important-ingredient-for-child-development-and-parent-child-relationships\/#gs.x5vshh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">studies<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that show positive effects from a parent and child participating in something musical <\/span><b>together.<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0Music can create a bonding experience between you and your preschooler!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Thankfully, you do not even have to be musically talented to pull off musically-based fun times with your child! There are simple and fun homemade project ideas that you can do with your preschooler from the comfort of your own home.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A Simple Kitchen \u201cTreasure\u201d Hunt<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Encourage your child to look through the kitchen cabinets and drawers for something to turn into a drum and drumstick, for example. (Your child can make any instrument, though.)\u00a0 Make sure your child makes something for you to play, too! When all of the desired participants have an instrument, your preschooler can lead the group around your living space for their own version of a music parade.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">An Inexpensive Music-Maker Project<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is said that the best things in life are free! There is no need to run to the store for this homemade project. Proactively save a milk jug and lid. Once it is rinsed (and dried), have your preschooler fill the jug with something that will create noise (dried rice, paperclips, etc.). Understandably, you may not want it too loud. You could add in cotton balls with some of the other fillers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You can be creative and fun while just using simple things from around your house. Though these ideas are simple, the time spent with your preschooler will be priceless. It is memorable to incorporate homemade musical instruments with your child, especially when it can take place where your child is most comfortable.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you enjoyed this blog, please take a look at our school\u2019s<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.com\/greatwood-canyon-gate\/blog\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">blog page<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.
