At Magical Music and Movement, we understand the profound impact that regular musical activity can have on the development of little ones. Engaging in music and movement supports their acquisition of language and communication skills, fosters personal and social development, enhances physical agility, promotes well-being, and nurtures imagination and creativity.
Studies have shown that babies who participate in music classes with their parents during their first year of life smile more, communicate better, and exhibit earlier and more sophisticated brain responses to music.

The R's behind the classes:
⭐ In conjunction with the Curriculum and at the core of the classes are the Magical Music and Movement 4 R’s: Rhyme, Rhythm, Repetition & Routine. Each R being important in ensuring the children’s enjoyment and enthusiasm.
⭐ Repetition - is fundamental to under fives learning, therefore the music & songs run in 4 to 6 week cycles to ensure everyone benefits from repeating the same songs & has a real chance to learn.
⭐ Routine -Following the same pattern of activities each week really helps the little ones even babies to feel secure. This builds confidence which enables them to join in more actively & independently.
