Music is one of the most important and powerful things in many people's lives. Listening to and playing different pieces of music helps us to reduce stress, relax and motivate ourselves even in difficult moments. Music is also part of everyday life for children . A children's drum can work wonders. Kids love listening to music on the way to school or kindergarten because they feel that it helps them to prepare better for the day ahead. And after school they can finally make music again with their children's drums. Tongue drums as percussion for children from Sonodrum are extremely pleasant for the ears of everyone involved and are particularly popular with small children.
Parents instinctively use music to calm and soothe their children, to express love and joy, and to interact with them. You can build on these natural instincts by learning how music influences your child's development, improves their social skills, and also increases their ability to concentrate. Today we're talking about children's drums, specifically the drums for children from Sonodrum. Have fun!
Explaining the importance of music in a child’s life
Music promotes all areas of a child's development and skills for school readiness, including intellectual, motor, language, social-emotional skills, and general reading skills. Reading music is now made easy with apps and Sonodrum's music books . When children are exposed to music in early development, they learn the sounds and meanings of words. Dancing to music helps children develop their motor skills and gives them the opportunity to express themselves. In children and adults, music strengthens memory.
But there are musical instruments that make it easier for children to start playing music than others, which also depends on the child's preferences. The children's drum is one of those instruments that is suitable for almost every child. However, there are drums that sound better than others, so let's take a look at the tongue drum , which cannot produce false notes and is pleasant to the ear.
Overview of the role of drumming in child development
Developing hand-eye coordination is important for drumming and can sharpen motor control in younger children, similar to how sports and physical activities do. Drumming not only develops fine motor skills but also rhythm and timing , meaning it offers a lot of kinesthetic experiences in one.
This is something that is often overlooked when considering the benefits of playing drums:
- Drumming is fun!
- It is very physical,
- is noticeably fun and
- rewarded with lots of energy,
- while the child learns basic rhythm skills.
