## Resource

How can singing and music help children learn, connect and express themselves? Katie Thistleton and Guvna B explore why music can be such a powerful part of family life, from babies hearing voices before they are born to children developing their own musical tastes. MOBO and Mercury Prize nominated musician Kojey Radical talks about music at home, becoming a dad and learning to embrace the songs and sounds his son naturally loves. Professor Lauren Stewart, a professor in the neuroscience of music at the University of Roehampton and consultant on the Happy Song, the first piece of music scientifically proven to make babies smile, explains why singing to children is not about having a perfect voice, but about communication, bonding and emotional connection.
