dc.description.abstract |
This work presents how Music and the musical Arts are effectively used in the Early
Childhood Centres in promoting children’s developmental abilities in their early
years. Qualitative approach was used and data were obtained through observations,
interviews and document study. Twenty-four (24) respondents from twelve (12) early
childhood education centres in the Krachi East District were purposively sampled for
the study. Findings indicate that, Music, taught with the integration of the other arts
enhanced the development of creative, mental and fluency skills, and the intellectual
abilities of the growing child which also aided the teaching of other subjects that
ensured the holistic development of the child. This research among other things
recommends the revision of the content of the music programme in the teacher
training institutions to directly comprise the contents and demands of the early
childhood programme. Future research can consider the role of the various individual
arts in the education of young children. |
