Red Grammer
Stress: Rx - Singing and Greening!
The Power of Music and Nature to Inspire, Create Normality and Bring Joy
Recent years have brought an unprecedented amount of upheaval, disruption to routine, social disconnection, and isolation to us and to the children and families we serve. Science is finding that two of the best ways to reduce stress are making music, especially together, and being in nature.
In this presentation, Red shares the research and then will lead us through a joyful interactive musical experience that shows how to use music and access nature in our classrooms to reset and moderate emotions, reduce and reframe stress, lower blood pressure, and increase endorphins, all at the same time!

4 Key Takeaways from this special event focused on music and movement:
Holistic Development
Music and movement play a crucial role in fostering holistic development in young children.
This special event will emphasize that incorporating these elements into early childhood education can enhance physical, cognitive, emotional, and social development simultaneously!
Active Learning
Active engagement through music and movement enhances learning. Learn how to create enviorments where children can actively participate, explore rhythms, experiment with different movements, and express themselves creatively.
This approach promotes better retention and understanding of concepts.
Language and Communication
Attendees will learn how vital the link between music, movement, and language development is.
Attendees will see first hand how to incorporate rhymes, songs, and rhythmic patterns into their teaching methods. This not only enhances language skills, but also supports nonverbal communication and expression!
Emotional Regulation
Music and movement provide children with healthy outlets for emotional expression and regulation. This special event will underscore how early childhood educators can use music and movement activities to help children manage their emotions, reduce stress, and develop self-awareness.
This skillset contributes to each child's overall well-being!
