Humans are inherently musical animals! Ask people on the street about their favourite music and they will respond by telling you their own preferred music genre. Whether it’s jazz, rock, folk, pop, or classical, everyone chooses a musical style that represents his or her own personality and fashion preference. We listen, we sing, and we dance to music – we can’t escape its power to capture our attention! There is always a special song or musical piece that will make us smile, cry, or just chill along.
When does our inclination for music begin? It starts at a very young age. Notice how babies turn their faces to wherever they can hear sounds that fascinate them. Check out our article about Musical Soft Toys for Babies!
As your child grows, they will develop the ability to recognise not just plain sounds but also musical tunes and rhythms. That is why it is advisable for kids to play with toys that expose them to different kinds of music – playthings that will hone their musical recognition skills.
Inspire your growing children to appreciate music more by giving them toys that will help develop their musical talents – even in their early years! Let’s have a look at the hottest and most trending musical toys for kids aged 1 year and above…
