"Kindermusik
addresses a child's development in many various
and powerful ways. Repeated exposure to musical
activities develops important cognitive and behavioral
skills. Some musical activities can help develop
inhibitory control - the ability to control or stop
one's movements. Also, changing volume, rate and
pitch in songs and activities teaches a child discrimination,
a crucial factor to listening and language processing"
