Learning music has many benefits for children.

Music has the ability to:

- Increase self-confidence.

- Provide opportunities throughout lifetime to play for pleasure and/or with others.

- Teach the virtues of delayed gratification, perseverance, and patience.

- Refine motor skills and improve hand-eye coordination.

- Teach abstract thought, spatial awareness, rhythm, pattern, and other mathematical skills.

“Research has found that learning music facilitates learning other subjects and enhances skills that children inevitably use in other areas.”
