Music can play a powerful role in our lives, and for babies and young children, introducing music early on can promote healthy brain development. The impact of music on the brain is becoming a 'hot' topic in science. Join us as expert Deanna deCampos, founder of Eastside Westside Music Together - also our generous sponsor - helps explain it all and provide tips on how you can create quality early music experiences with your little one now, and set the stage for long-lasting benefits down the road.

During class, Deanna will discuss

• How and why music makes a difference in so many developmental areas (brain architecture, language, cognitive, physical, etc.)
• Why YOUR voice matters
• How you can help your child become a confident music maker
