550 children inspire at the Kita Sing” festival in the Wolfsburg Baroque Garden!

In the baroque garden at Wolfsburg Castle, a happy spectacle took place on Sunday: The project "Kita Sing" celebrated its final event and brought together around 550 children from 28 daycare centers (daycare centers). Enthusiastic relatives and numerous visitors enjoyed the musical performances of the little ones, who performed together and thus focused on the joy of music. WAZ Online reports that the Diakonie-kita and The Fallersleben-Ost daycare center took part in it, while parents traditionally patiently waited for their children in front of the stage. The atmosphere? Happy and inviting - many guests just sang along.

The project "Sings" is an initiative of the Wolfsburg music school and has existed for 15 years. Monika Kiekenap, the head of M2K Wolfsburg, was happy about working with the daycare centers. This cooperation is usually perceived as very valuable, since the teachers are actively involved in the preparation of the children and the samples. The daycare centers are supported with a lot of commitment so that the children can optimally step onto the stage.

A look into the future

For the coming March, exciting events are already on the plan: the daycare week and an open day at the municipal music school in Wolfsburg. Here the families can immerse themselves in the musical offer of the facility and discover their favorite instruments. The open house day is rounded off with a performance of the daycare sessions in the large hall and in the school yard. Wolfsburg.de emphasizes that the daycare team supports the educators on site to promote singing and making music in the daycare centers.

But why is music so important for children? Children are receptive to musical sounds from birth and can hear their mother's voice during pregnancy. Music ensures security and is an important form of communication between child and caregiver. The positive effects on memory, intelligence and social behavior are recognized and anchored in many educational and educational plans. Kubi Online points out that more than 75% of parents sing regularly with their children, which is not only fun, but also promotes early childhood development.

In addition, research is determined that access to musical activities often depends on the level of education and the socio -economic status of the parents. The initiatives that make musical education accessible to all children are all the more important in daycare centers. Over 17% of students at public music schools are children under the age of six, which shows that interest in early musical education is growing steadily.

With so many inspiring projects and an exciting future for musical education in Wolfsburg, one thing is clear: The city has a good knack for promoting the small talents of tomorrow and offering them a loving and creative environment.
