Calm kids – Music therapy pre-school playgroup

This music therapy pre-school playgroup put a focus on child empowerment and regulation. It allows children to feel confident to express themselves and learn how to identify new emotions and social skills.

We practice sharing, singing, instrument playing, body movement and mindfulness to encourage self-regulation. When we validate a child’s emotions, we allow a child to express themselves in a safe environment. This positive acknowledgement allows children to become more aware of their emotions and body, which can help reduce or de-escalate reactions to big emotions.

Our music therapist works with you and your child to promote overall well being. This can include practicing social, physical, emotional and cognitive skills through therapeutic musical methods.

Does your child:
– show signs of anxiety or stress?
– struggle to relax?
– have love self esteem or confidence?
– find making friends challenging?
– have trouble calming down after big emotions?
– experience a developmental delay?

Music is an effective tool that can inspire and develop both verbal and non-verbal communication skills. Mindful music use also encourages soothing and calming effects on all ages. No previous music experience is required to join music therapy.
