Speech and communication are an essential part of development as well as letting others know what we need. This is very important for kids and can be a source of great frustration when little ones have difficulty communicating and cannot get their point across. Music Therapists can help children with communication using music and its properties.
Recently, KidLinks attended the annual Texas Council Conference in Houston. We shared a new resource with many Texas Community Centers.
During a well-crafted music therapy session, board-certified therapists can address motor, language, speech, cognitive and emotional expression. One of the best things is that we can meet these goals with a medium that naturally encourages creative play!

When a music therapist receives a referral for a new client, a lot of the times the parent or caregiver will say, “S/he has loved music since s/he was little.”
