brain functions for literacy, spatial intelligence,
motor skills and more. Kinderland’s music-infused
preschool curriculum for children from two months
to six years includes weekly music lessons by
trained teachers, plus singing, rhythm and harmony
training, keyboard playing, music notation reading
