Instruments from around the world

Music has always been an integral part of the Windsor program for its various beneficial effects on brain development. To the children though, it's just plain FUN! Babies and preschoolers alike enjoy making music with tambourines, maracas, triangles, wrist bells, etc.

We recently received a very wonderful gift from Sarah's family in celebration of her birthday: instruments from around the world (a kit from Lakeshore Learning).

Today we got a chance to really explore the Chinese gong, Chilean rainsticks, and Asian frog rasp. The children were in awe of the child-sized guitar and banjo as well. It was a music-filled day!

Thank you to Sarah's parents for their generous gift and to Sarah, lover of music, for sharing it so nicely with her friends.
