Music and Dance essential for children

 Through dance children develop spatial awareness become less clumsy and pay more attention to other sharing their space.
Many people today are better equipped than ever before to deal with life challenges and difficulties .
But children are spending less time playing physically . Many are becoming socially isolated because their leisure time is spent in front of a computer or television.
 In that case their ability to sing, dance and their imaginations soar?
 As children we use our voice and other instruments to express feelings but they also serve important learning functions - they teach us pattern, pulse, rhyme and structure. They Teach us the way humans Bond and Express emotions.
 The meaning of music and dance is not dependent on language . Our first response to music is through the movement of the body. In many cultures music , singing and dance have no clear divisions they are seen as a whole activity. Through dance children develop spatial awareness become less clumsy and pay more attention to others sharing their space . Children struggling with the language can express their feelings with immediacy through dance and movement.
By communicating freely with the voice, face and body children learn to express ideas with confidence. Song , music and dance can help children become more imaginative, self aware and collaborative global citizens.
