Does Early Music Exposure Make Children Smarter?
Company Seeks to Bring Music to the Youngest Children
March 7, 2006 - Music and math. Music and language. Music and science. Study after study has shown that early music education can enhance a child’s intellectual development and improve their performance in school.
“While the developmental benefits of music are well known, the availability of age appropriate, quality musical learning programs and products for young children is scarce,” says Tina M Ellis a Consultant for Do-Re-Me & You!™ . “Most children have to wait until they reach school age to gain regular exposure to music. Yet we know that when introduced very early on, music can positively impact a child’s ability to think, reason, create, imagine and express.”
Tina M Ellis goal is to bring music and related activities into the home and help parents tap into their children’s intellectual and creative potential. “Children don't have to wait for school to benefit from music's power to open windows in their young lives,” says Tina M Ellis.
Do-Re-Me & You! offers music and related books, toys and games for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, as well as older children. Designed to make music an integral part of children’s lives, these musical products were created by Kindermusik International®, one of the most respected names in children's musical learning. The Oppenheim Toy Portfolio recently presented a Gold Seal Award (2004) to Do-Re-Me & You! for Wiggle Waggle CD, board book and plush bee. Oppenheim, a leading child development authority, is the only independent consumer review of children's media for infants to elementary ages.
“Today’s parents want to give their children every advantage, says Tina M Ellis. One of the advantages should be the joy, fun, and learning that music can bring to life. With Do-Re-Me & You!, we’re helping make that possible for every family.”

Note to editors
Studies connecting music and educational readiness include:
• A University of California – Irvine study found that is superior to computer instruction for enhancing the abstract reasoning skills needed for science and math.
• A University of Toronto study found that musical training exercises parts of the brain useful in mathematics, spatial intelligence and other intellectual pursuits.
• A Chinese University of Hong Kong study found that children with music training had significantly better verbal memory than those without such training, and the longer the training, the better the verbal memory.
