EP 48 | The Benefits of Music for Children’s Wellbeing and Social-Emotional Development
Description
What if the most powerful co-regulation tool in your room didn’t cost a cent?
Music has always mattered - and in early learning, it’s more than fun; it’s nervous system work. It’s behaviour support. It’s belonging in action.
In this episode, I unpack the neuroscience, research and real-world power of music in early childhood settings and why it's one of the most under-utilised wellbeing tools we have.
You’ll hear:
🎵 How music regulates the nervous system, even before words do
🎵 What the research says about music and social-emotional learning
🎵 Simple, spontaneous ways to embed music into your daily practice
🎵 How music supports identity, agency and rights-based participation
🎵 Practical musical cues, rhythms and reflection ideas to try tomorrow
This episode is for you if you’ve ever felt like your days are chaotic, transitions are tricky, or you want to do more behaviour support without raising your voice. It's also for you if you’re curious about how music can support inclusion, belonging, and the emotional development of every child - especially those who don’t yet have the words.
