What Our Families are Saying

Little Musos has been a wonderful experience for my own children they have had so much fun and want to go again and again.
Furthermore, as a dyslexia therapist, I can vouch for the programme for the following reasons: It encourages integration of the brain hemispheres through play (especially marimba) and movement releases endorphins which affect the motor cortex of the brain , this bridges the gap between the stress centre and rational thinking making children more susceptible to learning rational thinking. The clever activities boost working memory and concentration, helpful for dyslexic children and those with ADD. The vestibular senses are stimulated through the carefully planned tasks and your child will come away with a new skill which they can continue to pursue in life. The ability to play an instrument provides stress relief and positive coping mechanisms which will see your child well into adulthood. Highly recommended for all children!
