"The results of scientific studies have shown that music is a key element to child development, being particularly important the first years of life ... Let's say that music is important because it encourages not only cognitive development but also the emotional development, physical and social. We can say that music stimulates learning, provides rich moments in terms of expression and exchange of affection between mother / father and baby ... music contributes to the strengthening of relationships and for the emotional wellbeing of the child, stimulates the physical and motor coordination (think, for example, when babies and children are moving with the sound of music!) ... and, furthermore, the music stimulates the child's social interaction with parents and with other children (think, for example in educational contexts as he grows, kindergartens, preschools and schools in which music serves as a call for social interaction among several children!). It is no coincidence that, in fact, music is increasingly present not only at home but also in these educational contexts ... is because, in fact, music is a key factor in overall child development."
