Even before you're born, you're dealing with music. Your mother listens, with you in her belly, to the radio, watches music shows, plays pictures, dances and sings. Babies, of course, react to that. We all know that. After birth, the music and the singing and dancing continues and even special baby songs are added. We used to play baby CDs at home and in the car with nice rhythmic sounds. That makes you happy yourself as a parent!

Special music programs on TV for babies, toddlers and preschoolers are great for your child. The Teletubbies, Sesame Street and many more, I don't really know them that well anymore. But music is really impossible to think away from the development of your child. And it's super important! With music on radio and TV, they grow up. And let's not forget the parties, performances, musicals, school songs, barrel organs on the street, the carousel with music, etc.

There are also a lot of toys that make music sounds. Simple musical instruments, but also real toys to play with, where fun sounds and music come from. With pushing or pulling, with or without batteries, but they are there! Actually, a lot even!
