Music and movement at home
During level 4 lockdown the staff at BestStart Hillcrest contacted centre whanau to help create a music and movement clip that the tamariki could watch at home. Jodi our clever kaiako put together all the clips and pictures whanau sent through. This song is one of our tamarikis favourite action songs.
Music is a language and tamariki are wired to learn language. Music helps to develop literacy skills, emotional regulation, memory skills and much more. Music makes our bodies move and tamariki enjoy and need movement for development and growth. Music is proven to release endorphins, our happy hormones!
