037 Teaching Your Toddler Through Music (with Kristin Shaeffer)
Teaching our toddlers can often be an exercise of frustration. They are in that stage where they want to be independent, they want to do things for themselves, but they haven't quite mastered the ability to do so yet.
Their language is still developing so you can’t really hold conversations or reason with them very well.
They are curious about everything and if left alone for any amount of time can cause irreparable damage to a variety of things.
So what do we do with these little bundles of energy and joy?
In today’s podcast, Kristin Shaeffer shares how music can help direct and teach our little ones in a very effective and natural way. Music is an easy, engaging, tool to use as we try to focus those exuberant energies into productive learning experiences.
Join us as Kristin shares a few tips and tricks that might work in your home.
