A Supportive, Practical Course for Parents Using Music With Their Children

A Supportive, Practical Course for Parents Using Music With Their Children

If you’d like to feel more confident using music to connect with your child — especially if they have additional or complex needs — our two‑day course Making Music with Special Children may be a wonderful fit.

 

You don’t need to be musical. You don’t need to sing in tune. You just need curiosity and a willingness to explore.

What you’ll learn

  • Simple ways to use music to support communication and bonding
  • How rhythm and pulse can help with focus and regulation
  • Creative ideas for using music, even with limited time or resources
  • Using iPads to make music
  • Approaches that work for children with a wide range of needs

“Certainly one of the very best courses I have ever attended – truly transformative! Heartfelt thanks to the tutors- and to the participants. I had a very rewarding time with my little granddaughter on Sunday, whose dancing back and forth along the sofa I accompanied with up and down arpeggios causing squeals of delight.” Christopher, grandparent
