Music serves as a powerful tool for parents to assist their children in regulating intense emotions. As children grow accustomed to songs and rhythms that aid in managing feelings of anger, fear, or sadness, they acquire a valuable coping mechanism – music – that they can independently utilize to navigate their emotions. In our toddler music classes, we gently guide children on this journey, teaching them to harness the transformative potential of songs and movement as a means to process and express these strong emotions. Moreover, music has the unique ability to evoke emotions and physical sensations. A child who attunes themselves to their own body can better recognize and articulate their emotions, consequently enhancing their capacity for self-regulation.
