Mrs. Sheri is Blogging!

Our senior instructor for Allen, Mrs. Sheri, has recently started a blog! As a mom to four kids and a professional musician, she has many interesting viewpoints.

In particular, Mrs. Sheri recently wrote an article about special needs, differently-abled and so-called "difficult" children participating in every day activities. We are sharing her article because it touches upon a basic core value of our studio: that every child is welcome, and that every child has value. On occasion a mom expresses to us that she is embarrassed over the way her child does or does not act in class, and we wish to reiterate that we love all of our families! It is our express desire to make music education available to every child!

You can view Mrs. Sheri's article here! Happy reading!

Music as a therapy tool can be amazing!  Music is valuable in providing an outlet of self expression, which is particularly beneficial with speech and anxiety disorders.  Kindermusik International shared a blog about the impact of music on children with special education needs.  Kindermusik is valuable for ALL children!
