Benefits of Children's Songs
Many adults, especially those who have direct contact with children, namely parents and teachers, do not yet understand the benefits of music and songs for the development of their little ones. Some moms might listen to Mozart while pregnant with the hope that your little one will grow up to be a smart child. In fact, listening to songs is not enough to stop there. Some of the benefits of children’s songs for your little one’s growth and development, according to Anyi, are:
- Means of communication, Singing the song Nina Bobok every night to sleep makes your little one understand that it’s time to get into bed. Or, if you want to advise your little one to take a shower and make up the bed, try singing the song Wake Up by Pak Kasur. Children will find it easier to get the message Mom is conveying than to hear your nagging. Communicating through songs will make Mama and your little one happy and information can be absorbed easily.
- Education facility, There are so many children’s songs that have a ‘mission’ to teach your little one something. For example, when he’s learning to count, try it while singing the song One Plus One. Through songs, your little ones can also learn new vocabulary that will enrich their language.
- Means to close relationshipsWhen you sing a simple and positive children’s song, you will feel happy. And, the little one who listens to it is also happy. The emotional attachment between mother and child is well established. To be sure, children will remember when he was a child and be awakened by singing by his mother, not by coercion and scolding.
