Summary How the adult can help the young child to learn the tonal and rhythmic language of music is the subject of this book. Music and young children fit as well with each other as the completed pieces of a preschool puzzle. This book provides all adults who work with children, from infancy to age 5, with the basic awareness of the principles and practices of educating the young through music. The approaches suggested in the text have been carefully tested with young children from infancy through the preschool years. These approaches have wide applicability for a variety of young children in different educational settings, including the home, the infant-care center, the preschool, the day-care center, and the recreation facility. Although the emphasis is on how to carry out musical activities, the reasons for performing these activities are also provided. Theory is provided as it relates directly to practice. - Preface
