Art and Music Therapy

Art and Music Therapy

Research shows effective art and music therapy yields maximum results and has been used extensively to enhance individual development and growth. This type of therapy has been shown to help children with special needs. Art and music positively affect the mood, cognition and behavior of children with varying disabilities, and those with autism, speech impairments, ADD/ADHD or other mental and behavioral health conditions. The therapy helps children to effectively communicate, improves their concentration levels and behaviours and helps develop closer relationships. Art and Music are commonly used tools for both teachers and learners in inclusive classrooms as those facilitate inclusion of students with disabilities. Today’s educators are resorting to this powerful tool of art and music therapy to make learning effective and helping children to flourish cognitively and developmentally. If you are part of the teaching profession or handling special children then you must join our webinar on Art and Music Therapy.
