Book excerpt: This book teaches how to develop children’s musical skills through a unique compilation of songs, arts and crafts, stories, instrument building, musical activities, illustrations, acting, and dance. Nowadays, with art and music programs removed from many public schools, we need a book like this. This book’s holistic approach is designed for parents or teachers (with or without musical knowledge) to interact with children in a collaborative learning experience. Big Brain, Little Hands facilitates the “building blocks” for children’s first musical and artistic experiences, otherwise mainly taught through private lessons. Working this program with autistic children and children with learning disabilities has also shown excellent results. Music and Arts are fundamental for any child’s development because they create neural connections between the brain’s hemispheres (hence the term “Music Therapy.”) Here’s a chance to access these fun practices anytime you want. This book is a labor of love for our precious little ones’ future!
