Praise
the Lord.
Praise
Him with the sounding of the trumpet,
Praise
Him with the harp and lyre,
Praise
Him with the strings and flute,
Praise
Him with the clash of cymbals,
Praise
Him with resounding cymbals.
Let
everything that has breath praise the Lord
(Psalm
150:1-6)
Many
people think music started in Heaven. It rather came from heaven and started on
the planet earth. Music has been in Heaven and will be there for ever and ever.
Therefore,
as a Christian school founded on Jesus Christ, we teach our children music to
give glory to God and to enable them to enjoy themselves. Music
is fun. It has the power to engage, relax, and
energize the children. Early childhood experts have proved that:
If you want to know how children love music, play it
for or with them, or better place an instrument into their hands!
One of the greatest gifts
we can give our children is the love of music. Fortunately it doesn't require
expensive lessons and instruments to do this.
Singing, even speaking in a
sing-song voice to children is a natural habit for most parents. Something deep
inside us tells us that music elicits joy and happiness and even calms our
little ones. . Young children love music and rhythm. Parents can rock their
children and sing to them as a part of a regular routine each night before bed.
It's not necessary to have a great voice, because children are simply happy to
hear their parents' or teachers' voice and how they express themselves. What's
being communicated is your love for your child, that you'll take care of them
and that they are secure.
