Adult pop music is now so popular that children listen to, learn, and sing. If their families do not distinguish and restrict it, it is very likely that a 3-year-old child will sing adult songs. In fact, when young children learn to sing adult songs, their physical and psychological aspects will be affected.
Since the muscles of the pharynx and vocal tract of infants and young children around 3 years old have not yet matured, and their vocal range is relatively narrow, they should choose songs suitable for this age group, because the range of children's songs and nursery rhymes is generally in the minor third. Within the range, it is in line with the physiological characteristics of this age and is most suitable for children to learn to sing. Adult songs have a wide range and large fluctuations in pitch. In order to achieve the required tone of the song, the contraction of the muscles in the pharynx and vocal tract must be strengthened, resulting in increased damage to muscles and nerve tissue, which can easily damage the voice of young children.
Generally speaking, children like to imitate singing since they are 2 years old. Children before the age of 3 are only intuitively stimulated by music. They do not have much discrimination and do not learn what they hear. , if not guided, it may damage the child's voice unknowingly. In fact, music is very good for children, but you must be selective. For example, after waking up and after meals, you can listen to soothing music for your children, especially some classic songs, which can also stabilize emotions.
Generally speaking, children under 1 year old should not listen to music for more than 20 minutes at a time, and children between 1 and 3 years old should not listen to music for more than 30 minutes at a time. Music should not be replaced too frequently. Generally, it can be replaced every 2 to 4 months. While children appreciate music, families can also encourage children to imagine boldly and express what they hear and feel in words, so as to strengthen children's language expression and perception abilities.
