Musical Baby Books: The Power of Sing-A-Longs

Singing to children is a natural for most parents. Lullabies and children’s songs always soothe and entertain infants and toddlers. When parents take the next step and start reading from musical baby books or singing along with baby music CDs or a baby DVD, a whole other realm of benefits can be expected that will contribute to the development of your baby genius.

Musical baby books and educational baby DVDs provide a simple, cost-effective way to combine learning language and vocabulary with the benefits of children’s literature. Singing along with children’s songs from baby music CDs or musical baby toys boosts phonemic awareness, which is critical for literacy development. In addition, studies have found that when a child sings along, whether with baby music toys, educational baby DVDs or a baby CD, their motivation is increased, neurological effects are enhanced and fluency is boosted. Who would have thought developmental baby toys could be fun, too!

Teachers read out loud to their students to generate conversation and introduce the joys of literacy—plus, it’s a great way to bond with students. The same benefits are enjoyed from singing along with a baby music toys or the best baby music CDs. Since educational baby toys like a baby DVD or baby music toys are interactive and appealing, children don’t realize that they are actually improving their grammar skills. That’s the great thing about musical baby toys and baby music—it seems like just play, not like playing with developmental baby toys.

The bottom line—every baby genius benefits from and enjoys a baby CD filled with baby music! Choose the best baby music CDs or a baby DVD for your child’s educational baby toys and learning will definitely be fun.

Why children's music is so much better than T.V.


If you’re trying to find the best tools for helping your baby genius develop, there are some facts you should know about the negative effects of television viewing. When you have other choices  in play like singing children’s songs or reading musical baby books, as well as an array of educational baby toys, like musicalbaby books, baby music CDs and baby DVDs, you will probably only want to turn the TV on to play educational baby DVDs.

Studies show that watching too much TV weakens a child’s imagination. If watching a program at all, it should be one that prompts a child to interact, such as educational baby DVDs. Children need to sing, listen to stories and play outdoors. In general, watching regular television does not require concentration, focused attention, or comprehension. This is why Baby Genius strives to create the best baby DVD products that promote interaction and integration. In addition, the developmental baby toys we create are geared to stimulate and promote cognitive skills, as well as memory, language and vocabulary skills—these include our musical baby books, baby CD products, and musical baby toys.

Too much television watching can cause overstimulation as well as desensitization to the violence that is so prevalent in today’s programming. In addition, watching too much TV can affect brain development. A young child should be moving around and dancing like they do when singing along with children’s songs on baby music CDs or playing with baby music toys.
 
While TV watching promotes a passive state, the educational baby toys we create at Baby Genius, like our baby CD products filled with baby music, baby music toys and other developmental baby toys, do exactly the opposite. So visit www.BabyGenius.com and find the best baby music CDs and baby music toys for your child today!

Why are children’s songs so helpful to child development?

Many research studies have been conducted over the past few decades that show how baby music and children’s songs are extremely valuable to child development. For example, a study conducted in 1995 showed that listening to Mozart improved spatial reasoning, while in 1996, students from two elementary schools n Rhode Island showed marked improvement in math skills after participating in a sequential music program. These types of studies show exactly why baby music CDs and educational baby toys such as musical baby books and baby DVDs are considered fundamentals for development.

Musical baby toys aren’t just for intellectual and cognitive development either—a study conducted by Auburn University showed that at-risk children who participated in music programs showed significant increases in self-esteem. That alone is enough motivation to build a library of educational baby DVDs, musical baby books and the best baby music CDs filled with classical music and children’s songs. Baby music toys and baby DVDs are also entertaining and provide great ways for parent-child bonding.

Many parents worry that they can’t afford to give their children expensive music lessons or that they never had them so are not sure how to make the most of baby music—never fear, all you need is a baby CD! This is exactly why Baby Genius created its slate of developmental baby toys that include all you need to garner the benefits of baby music and children’s songs.

The Essential Role of Play

Aside from being fun and entertaining, children learn through play and garner significant developmental benefits. Baby Genius strives to create educational baby toys such as musical baby books and baby music CDs filled with children’s songs that maximize these benefits and provide fun for parents and children alike.

Play impacts your child's neurological development! Play and exploration trigger the secretion of BDNF, an integral substance for the growth of brain cells. Therefore, it’s important for play to have an exploratory element to it. Baby Genius designs everything from our educational baby DVD and baby CD products to our musical baby toys and other developmental baby toys with that in mind. Both our baby music CDs and musical baby books engage your child to learn new children’s songs and sing-a-long—they’re actually so much fun that even parents forget that they’re educational baby toys as well. 
There are actually many ways to make the most out of playtime for children. It’s important for playtime to be structure-free and lacking boundaries. For example, children may want to sing or dance along with our educational baby DVDs and play with our baby music toys by themselves or with others. They may want you to play a baby CD or baby DVD of children’s songs so they can socialize and play with you or other children—since playtime is about exploring and making discoveries, it’s all about what they want to do and how they want to use their baby music toys. Luckily, Baby Genius provides the best baby music CDs that make it fun and productive to sing to and with your infant or child, learn classics and nursery rhymes—all activities that will boost their memory, and help develop their oral and written language skills.
