First, when the baby is in the womb, listen to some soothing and pleasant prenatal music; After the child comes out, he should form the good habit of keeping him in the music atmosphere at any time and play some world famous songs for him at will. Besides sleeping, no matter what children are doing, they can inadvertently capture beautiful music, and these melodies will be imperceptibly internalized into children's nutrition. You must believe in the power of classics.
Second, enjoy music with children. Children naturally yearn for beautiful music. Usually parents can play games with them while singing. Babies before the age of five are not afraid to repeat. We can sing the same nursery rhymes over and over again.
Third, choose an instrument. I have done some research in school, and the children who have practiced musical instruments have good coordination, quality and high musical quality, and often study well. Children can touch musical instruments when they are four or five years old. Practicing musical instruments is an extremely test of parents' perseverance. The following points should be noted:
1, choose an instrument to be recognized by children as much as possible. Our parents often consider the price, time, popularity and other issues, ignoring the children's own characteristics. Children's strong interest in playing is an inevitable prerequisite for persistence.
2. In the process of learning, we should pay more attention to companionship than persecution, beauty than technology, and process than result.

How to Improve Children's Music Literacy
Encourage children to participate in various musical activities. Encourage children to join the school orchestra and choir and perform on the stage; Encourage children to participate in collective music activities and show their musical talents in front of others. Encouraging children's efforts and appreciating them will integrate children's life with music.
Music is a language to express one's feelings. Rich musical images are not only the result of musicians' creation, but also can stimulate people's creativity. For children, music can promote the development of intelligence, improve children's ability to feel and experience emotions, cultivate children's sentiment, improve children's cultural literacy, promote the coordinated development of the left and right hemispheres of the brain, and promote the improvement of thinking ability. Music can also stimulate the positive factors in children's personality and develop their musical intelligence, so as to change and overcome the negative factors in their personality. For example, passionate music can make children overcome cowardice and become brave, while beautiful music can make violent children quiet.
Children's hidden musical talent is extremely rich and precious, far beyond our adults' estimation. Among adults, there are still many people who are tone-deaf and know nothing about music, so sometimes we often underestimate the musical potential of children because of some limitations of our own factors. It is children's nature and instinct to like music, which plays an extremely important role in children's life. To this end, he consciously enriched the children's lives with music, among which the family concert after dinner was the most enjoyed by the children.
When children's life is full of music, children can touch and listen to music every day. In this way, slowly, children can gradually understand music day by day and learn to express music. This is a very simple truth, just like a child learning a language, he must have a language environment so that he can hear the conversations of adults every day. In this way, he can gradually understand the language of adults, not only using words and sentences, but also intonation changes such as cadence.
Parents can provide a better toxic environment for pranks. For example, let children listen to music, listen to music radio broadcasts, listen to children's songs, and listen to classmates and friends singing; Let the children learn to sing with the tape, watch the music and learn to sing, and sit next to their father and learn from their parents. Let children play music games, throw handkerchiefs, jump rope songs, etc.
Parents' musical literacy and habits. Facts have proved that parents love music and children love music. Such examples abound. Haydn, the founder of Vienna classical music, has ordinary parents who love music. So is Schubert, the king of songs. His father is a primary school teacher and loves music. The influence of his family undoubtedly provided a good soil for the growth of musicians.
How to stimulate children's interest in music
Undoubtedly, music education plays a positive role in cultivating children's cooperative spirit and interpersonal skills. Children's interest in music is an important factor to improve the quality of music teaching. So, how to stimulate children's interest in music in preschool education activities?
(A flexible and diverse teaching methods
Children are innocent and lovely, lively and active, and have no good self-control ability. Therefore, children can experience the whole process of discovering music, feeling music, understanding music, appreciating music and expressing music in the interesting practice of moving, listening, watching, distinguishing and singing by adopting various vivid methods such as alternating movement and scene blending.
(2) Choose different music materials to improve children's ability to distinguish music.
In music appreciation, the choice of teaching materials is directly related to children's interest in music appreciation. Pay attention to the acceptability and acceptability of young children when selecting materials. Different concerts bring different feelings to children. Of course, the choice of music is very important to attract young children. The choice of music must be close to children's life, so that children can have personal experience and have the desire to express music.
(3) Designing a good teaching language to increase the unique interest of music.
The music teaching language of activity organization refers to the music language embellished in music activities, such as the routine of greeting teachers and children before and after the activity, which can be expressed in the form of music. Let the children do the rhythm by playing a cheerful piece of music, which shows that the music activity has begun. It can not only highlight the characteristics of the music activity, but also stimulate the children's interest and indirectly impart knowledge. Rhythmic language, that is, expressed by tapping body movements, can make children feel the speed and strength of music and cultivate their sense of rhythm, which can play a great role in percussion. Sign language, that is, teachers' gestures rather than language, can play a more informing role in silence than in voice, and it is easier and more direct to convey and express inner feelings to children in time through gestures, so as to enter the connotation of songs. Through the teacher's gestures and expressions to the child's body language, it can play the role of "but I feel the harmonious heartbeat of the sacred unicorn". Generally speaking, it is mainly the expression of eyes and face, which reveals and conveys the inner feelings to children in silent language. A pair of bright and firm eyes and a smiling face full of joy can make children feel passionate and more energetic.
(4) Pay attention to let children express themselves through their own activities.
The whole art of preschool education is to cultivate children's interest in learning and stimulate their initiative in seeking knowledge. Only when children need it can teachers get the best results. In the past music education, teachers often ignored children's initiative and enthusiasm, did not give them enough free space, and paid too much attention to skill training. In fact, in teaching, as long as children's desire to express themselves is fully mobilized, and they are allowed to explore in self-writing, generate motivation and self-confidence, and generate interest in learning, their curiosity and thirst for knowledge will be developed.
(5) Provide children with a stage to show their personal musical opinions and improve their musical expression ability.
Children who like music especially like acting. To this end, I often provide children with opportunities to perform, so that children can show themselves in different music and on a broad music stage. Of course, there are many ways to express music, such as singing, reading, painting and dancing. Music appreciation stimulates children's desire and interest in innovation, and chooses different expressions for different music. So as to better cultivate children's innovative ability.
In short, we should constantly improve children's interest, integrate deep feelings into music teaching, stimulate children's aesthetic feeling through the artistic image of music, let them love and integrate into music, let us explore together, give full play to the unique function of music education, and promote the comprehensive and harmonious development of children's body and mind.
