So many ways that music is a tool to interacts, enhances, and strengthens the brain...

"Did you know that the limbic system, which is the emotional epicenter of the human brain, is activated when you listen to music? This limbic system is just like a switch that governs the brain’s ability to learn and stop learning. Also, the limbic system is connected to the prefrontal cortex of the brain, where high-level thinking, strategic decision making, and executive planning take place. No wonder, music is the go-to medicine for most ‘thinking’ individuals."

🤚 👏

Typical playground equipment such as swings, monkey bars, and slides can help a child to develop sensory processing skills, motor planning, problem-solving, balance, as well as hand strength. As children interact with their environment, they learn how to make sense of the world around them. The playground is a great place to start!

Playing at the playground can help your child’s fine motor skills, too! Often parents think of fine motor skills as a tabletop activity, coloring, or stringing beads. This is true, but those are just a few activities that address fine motor coordination and dexterity. Playing at the playground also offers many unique opportunities for grasping and strength. Additionally, it works on the underlying components that are necessary to promote fine motor development.
