Music

The Blind Children's Learning Center is proud to introduce our New Music Program for children with vision impairments.

The program focuses on listening to music as an active discipline, rather than a passive activity. Basic distinctions, such as high and low pitch variance, direction of pitch, dynamic ranges, and tempo variations have been shown to provide insights that help the students relate more thoroughly to the world around them.

Studies show that the ability to actively listen to music supports both spatial and emotional development.

Children react in their own way to different styles of music. Some will smile at the sound of a guitar while others will respond to the sounds associated with orchestrated symphonies.

Music gives the children a means of emotional expression by stimulating them.  Most importantly, music is fun and one area where the visually impaired child can thrive like any other typical child.
