Music- based play, in particular, can help you develop language and listening skills, as well as problem-solving skills and spatial awareness. Creating music together with an instrument is a positive and joyful experience for all to share, enhancing your emotional well-being. Making music encourages self-expression and self-confidence, and is particularly important for you to participate in the process. A musical instrument doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. If you can shake it, bang it, roll it or rattle it, and it makes a noise – you can call it an instrument! Objectives of Project The objectives of this project: To identify critical thinking and idea generation skills through the investigation and application of a wide range of thinking skills and techniques.
