Helping Kids Express Themselves Through Music

Music is a safe way to feel emotions. Life — especially life with young children — can often feel hectic and rushed. Adults tend to want to name a big feeling and then move on. One of the great benefits of music is that it offers a safe and dependable place to feel our feelings. “When we are afraid, sad, or really happy, we can invite music in,” said Jenn Horak-Holt, owner and director of Pied Piper Studios –– a community learning hub focused on filling families’ lives with music and creating vibrant early childhood experiences. There are lots of ways to "invite music in." You can check them out in the link below.
