Music training raises a child’s IQ

FROM the moment they’re born – in fact, probably even before that — children love music.

It’s an intuitive love, with more than a thousand research studies demonstrating how music can boost a child’s intelligence, emotional and social development and self-esteem.

This amazing power is highlighted in a new book, The Music Miracle by musician Liisa Henrikkson-Macauley, who stresses how music training — even less than an hour a week — can unlock a child’s full potential.
