We witnessed the cutest jam session in Mr. Brown's music class.💜 MECC students used maracas, tone blocks, egg shaker, and guiro instruments to make a beat together. Under Mr. Brown's direction, the students did a phenomenal job playing in sync.
Introducing children to music at a young age has numerous benefits for their development, such as enhancing their motor skills and improving memory and concentration. Way to go, little musicians! 🎼
