As your child grows and becomes more confident then so to does the need for them to be more expressive and become more physically active to help burn up all that energy stored up inside of them.
Dance and drama is a fantastic way to channel that energy and help develop spatial awareness. They become less clumsy and pay more attention to others who are sharing their space.
Did you know that singing is also an aerobic exercise that improves the efficiency of the cardio-vascular system, increasing the oxygenation of the blood and improving alertness.
Singing also helps reduce stress and increase longevity and general health. Improving airflow in the upper respiratory tract impedes the bacteria that can cause colds and flu.
