音乐的魔力

Some months ago, I was playing some Snow White music to some children under my care.
The children started following along to the music, using different toys (hammer, golf stick, drum stick) to walk one by one like the 7 dwaves.

Hayden, a boy who was only 10 months old at the time, picked up a home-made "music roll" made of cardboard onto his shoulder and with a smile, also moved his body to the music rhythm. 

After that day, every time we played the same Snow White music, he would repeat this action.


From this play Hayden became interested in all types of music, even as he began to learn to walk. Not only would he point his "music roll" at the radio every time, but he shared the "music roll" with his friends, and invited them play together with the music. 

Hayden also started paying more attention to different music types, even classic music. Once we were playing some classical violin music, Hayden started walking very slowly at the beginning, then following the increasing pace of the music he began walking faster and also yelled with excitement. 

Music has stimulated Hayden's emotional and cognitive development or is Hayden a special child who is especially sensitive to music?

 几个月前，在我的照顾下孩子玩起了白雪公主音乐。孩子们跟着音乐，用不同的玩具（高尔夫球棍，锤，棒鼓），一个个像7 小矮人似的行走。

Hayden，当时只有10个月大的男孩，拿起自制的“音乐卷”放在他的肩膀上，面带微笑，也随着音乐的节奏运动他的身体。

那天以后，每次我们放相同的白雪公主的音乐，他就会重复这个动作。


起于这个游戏，海登表现出对音乐的兴趣。学会走路后，他不仅会点着录音机要放音乐，还主动把音乐卷给小朋友，邀请他们一起玩音乐游戏。

渐渐的，海登关注起不同的音乐类型，甚至古典音乐。在他14个月大的时候，一次我放了经典小提琴曲，海登先是缓慢行走，然后速度加快，因为音乐的旋律变化了。随着步伐加快，他兴奋地大叫起来。

是音乐激发了海登的情感和认知能力的发展，还是海登是一个特殊的音乐敏感的孩子？
