Holistic development
Music stimulates attention, memory, language, coordination, imagination, self-regulation and confidence.
An Interartes programme for babies and children up to the age of 5, designed to support the most sensitive stages of cognitive, motor, emotional and social development.
At Interartes, music is understood as one of the most complete languages for human development. The programme values listening, the body, the voice, connection and expression, without introducing technical goals that do not yet belong at this stage.
Music stimulates attention, memory, language, coordination, imagination, self-regulation and confidence.
Rhythm, gesture, swaying, movement and small percussion instruments help children organise their bodies in time and space.
The presence of an adult reinforces security, participation and continuity between the session, home and the child's daily life.
Sessions are led by professionals with experience in music education and early childhood, combining structure, repetition, surprise and freedom of expression.
Simple melodies, vocal games, imitation, musical responses and exploration of the speaking and singing voice.
Clapping, stamping, body percussion, small instruments and age-appropriate rhythmic patterns.
Sounds, silences, contrasts, musical stories and simple creative activities.
The programme follows each child's natural development, without rushing or turning early childhood into premature school preparation.
Sensory experiences, lullabies, eye contact, swaying, pulse and responses to the earliest sound gestures.
Children begin to respond with greater independence: singing fragments, recognising patterns, imitating gestures and exploring instruments.
Consolidating listening, coordination, musical memory, creativity and readiness for future instrumental learning.
These videos provide an accessible introduction to the importance of music in the early years and its impact on children's development.
An explanation of how musical experiences activate multiple areas of the brain, supporting attention, memory, language, movement and emotion.
A visual overview of the importance of music in childhood, showing how rhythm, listening and musical practice can support holistic development.
Early childhood is not a stage for quick results. It is a stage for building foundations: security, curiosity, listening, coordination and the joy of taking part.
Children recognise sounds, voices, silences, dynamics and contrasts.
The body begins to follow the music through gesture, gaze, movement and voice.
Children anticipate moments, imitate patterns and build confidence within the group.
There is room for small choices, sound invention and personal expression.
Clear answers for families looking for a consistent, age-appropriate first musical experience.
No. Participation can happen through eye contact, gesture, movement, listening or imitation. Each child responds at their own pace.
At the youngest ages, yes. The adult's presence is an important part of the musical experience and helps extend the learning into the home.
Not at this stage. The aim is to develop musical, physical, listening and expressive foundations that can support future learning.
There is a recognisable structure because repetition provides security. Within that structure, there is variation, surprise and new musical activities.
