INFANT AND TODDLER BRAIN DANCE

With music-based movement and dance, rhythms, rhymes and singing, this course will explore how physical activity supports cognitive learning and social-emotional development in infants and young toddlers. Using multi-sensory props and instruments, students will experience how music and movement promote and sustain early developmental patterns necessary for building a strong foundation between body and brain. Laboratory portion of the course may require students to participate in activities along with children ages 0 to 24 months. (FT)
