The Guide to Music for 0-3 Years

20 Sep 06 00:00

 

Music Fusion's new Early Years training book and CD is hot off the press!

 

‘The Guide to Music For 0-3 Years’ takes early years workers and their children on a journey through music making together, with a range of songs, activities and information to enrich children and babies’ early development.

The resource is designed to compliment Music Fusion's Level 2 OCN accreditted music leader course, but is a great stand-alone tool for anyone working with or caring for the age range.

Acting Development Manager Jo Hancox said: “The book has been a year in the making by our highly experienced team of early years music leaders.  We’re all extremely proud of it.”

The Guide to Music For 0-3 Years is 60 pages long in full colour, beautifully illustrated throughout and includes tips and actions for the carer and child to do together as they sing along.

The book and CD is now available direct from Music Fusion for £15.  Further information on how to order a copy can be found at www.musicfusion.org.uk
