Interesting blog post from the DuPage Children's Museum. A quote from the article: "Research suggests that math and music are related in the brain from early in life, and, correspondingly, that music education in early childhood plays an important role in the development of foundational mathematical skills".

Walk through the Museum on any given day, and you will – without fail – encounter little ones in all exhibit areas using everything from glow

This article has an interesting section titled, "Better Numeracy" that discusses the close connection between music and mathematics, as well as the "...strong association between music instruction and achievement in mathematics" and the increase in mathematics test scores in students who took music lessons.

Every culture on this planet has art forms. Why is that? Neuroscientists continue to find clues as to how the mental and physical activities required for the arts are so fundamental to brain function.

Musical Training Optimizes Brain Function

Start those music lessons early! :)

Musical training before age 7 can benefit brain function for a lifespan.

Just a few photos from our Holiday Piano Workshop on December 18th. We had a great time playing games, dancing to holiday music and playing the piano for each other. All of the students impressed me as they performed their songs for an audience for the first time. Great job, everyone! (Parents, if you have any photos or videos you'd like to share, feel free to upload them here or to the Music Math & Me page!)
