Music is an artistic image, full of pictures. Through music activities, children's memory, imagination, and creativity can be enhanced, and their auditory discrimination ability and sensitivity can be improved. When we are young children, we integrate a certain amount of music enlightenment education into their growth, learning and life. It is of great significance to stabilize children's emotions, develop their intelligence, and enable them to grow healthily and harmoniously. The following is the content related to children's music enlightenment education that I have compiled for you. It is for reference only. I hope it can help you!

When it comes to music education for children, adults generally have the following attitudes

1. They think that children are still young and do not understand what music is and do not appreciate music. Talking about music is like "playing the piano to an ox". Therefore, adults do not need to spend time and energy here.

2. Due to the extremely fierce competition in today's society, many parents blindly hope that their children can have a skill. They save money and buy expensive musical instruments for their children, but ignore their children's legitimate needs for diversity and breadth in exploring the world around them. Some parents do not follow their children's interests as a guide, and do not understand their children's hobbies and specialties. When they see other people's children learning musical instruments, their own children do not want to learn at all, and even have no musical skills, but they still force their children to continue practicing.

3. Music popularization education in today’s society is a mixed bag. Some teachers use a single teaching method regardless of the age of the children. The consequence of this is that except for very few talented children who can eventually succeed, most children end up in vain. Not only do parents invest a lot of time, energy, and financial resources, but the most important thing is that their children can only linger in front of the music hall and never enter the vast world of music.

How should adults provide music enlightenment education to children?

1. Adults should establish correct concepts and fully realize the importance of music enlightenment education for children. Children's psychological development is not yet mature, and it is difficult for them to accept complex knowledge structures; their physical development is also immature, and their nerves and bones are not fully developed, so it is impossible to master difficult skills and movements.

Therefore, the purpose of music enlightenment education for children is to open the door to the music world for children and guide them to observe and appreciate the colorful world of music, thereby stimulating their interest in art.

2. Cultivate children’s interest in music in daily life and let them have more exposure to music. When you get up in the morning, play soft and sweet music; when playing games, play lively and interesting music; when you go to bed at night, play a gentle and quiet lullaby. In short, it is necessary to provide appropriate and continuous musical stimulation in life to arouse children's pleasant emotions so that their musical talents can be fully utilized.

3. Carry out some simple and interesting music activities according to the age characteristics of the children, let the children actively participate, and stimulate the children's desire to participate in music activities. You can choose some interesting songs with vivid lyrics that children can understand for your children to learn to sing, such as "Little White Rabbit", "Big Rooster", etc. You can also teach your children to clap their hands and stomp their feet to train their sense of rhythm. Prepare several musical instruments, such as electronic keyboard, dulcimer, bells, tambourine, etc. for children to touch, knock, and beat to feel the sounds produced by different instruments.

4. Often take children to nature to experience the beauty of music. Listen to the melodious calls of birds, the chirping of insects, the whistling of the wind, the ticking of rain, etc., to inspire your children's love for music.

We must understand that providing children with music enlightenment education will be an unsuccessful education if it is divorced from reality and lacks pleasure; similarly, children who are extremely reluctant to learn will not only fail to learn anything, but may even affect their physical and mental health.

No.1 Let babies listen to the beautiful sounds around them

Baby is born Then, you should gradually introduce listening to the surrounding sounds and music:

Listen to toys that can make pleasant sounds, or hang a wind chime in the room that can make crisp and pleasant sounds.

Listen to the sound of chopping vegetables in the kitchen and the sound of pots and pans clinking together.

Listen to the sounds of wind, thunderstorms, raindrops, and running water in nature; and the chirping sounds of various insects, birds, and poultry.

Listen to various means of transportation, such as the rumble of trains and the buzz of airplanes; the whistles of cars, trains and ships.

Let the baby identify the voices of relatives at home, such as dad, mommy, grandpa, grandma, grandpa, grandma and neighbors; identify the voices of people expressing different emotions, such as happy, angry, anxious, etc.

Let the baby close his eyes and listen to three sounds, namely small bells, small drums and wooden fish. Then, ask the baby to name the order in which the sounds are made.

Sing different songs to your baby and listen to the sounds of different instruments, such as harmonica, flute, violin, piano, accordion, etc.; listen to music or symphonies played by different instruments (suitable for older children) Baby).

No.2 Play games that make pleasant sounds

Once your baby can sit up and stand, you can let him "play" various "instruments":

Use a small wooden stick to hit overturned barrels, pots, basins, pottery and other utensils that can make a pleasant sound.

Put a few beans into the balloon and blow it up. This way, your baby has an "instrument" that rattles, and the balloon amplifies the sound. You can also put sand and small stones into discarded cartons or opaque bottles and let your baby shake them to hear what sounds they make.

Put multiple bottles filled with different volumes of water and let your baby tap them gently with a spoon. Each bottle will produce a different pitch.

Rubbing things made of different materials, such as cellophane, paper bags, and plastic bags; stretching the rubber band and then releasing it will produce a string sound.

When conditions permit, Mommy can play different musical instruments, and then arrange the sounds produced by the different instruments into a harmonious rhythm. For example, first hit the timpani "dong dong" twice, and then hit the triangle "ding" once. In this way, the musical rhythm of "dong dong ding - dong dong ding..." can be arranged in an orderly manner. Regular training like this can enhance your baby's sense of rhythm.

No. 3: Play more rhythmic games

Use rattles and tambourines to make rhythmic sounds for the baby to listen to, and then let the baby beat them by themselves.

Let the baby ride on mommy’s lap, while reading rhythmic children’s songs to make the baby’s body tremble up and down.

Play sawing and sawing games with your baby, and sing while doing it; or recite children's songs rhythmically.

Use two bamboo boards (can be replaced by building blocks) to make sounds of different speeds and lengths to represent different actions. Let your baby listen. Which sound sounds like a horse running? Which one sounds like a big bear coming?

Let the baby do various imitative actions, such as playing drums, blowing the trumpet, and learning bunny hops and bird flies.

No.4 Play music or sing lullabies anytime and anywhere

Your baby’s hearing is most acute before the age of 3, which is the best time to train their sense of sound. Therefore, from the moment the baby is born, after each feeding, the mother will gently pat the baby's back or gently push the cradle while humming a lullaby.

Mommy sings lullabies to her baby, or often plays some world classics with beautiful melodies, such as works by great musicians such as Mozart, Chopin, Schubert, Brahms, and Liszt. Don't just listen to one or two pieces of music all the time. Change them once you get used to them. In this way, the baby can develop a familiar feeling from repeated listening and singing, and thus understand the beat, tone and intensity of the music. As a result, hearing will be improved, which will help the baby learn language, improve memory, imitation and concentration. What's even more valuable is that it can promote the development of imagination and creativity.
