Wherever we go, it feels like we cannot escape the sound of music. In the car, elevators, stores, and in our homes, we are constantly affected by music. Many families are realizing the effects that music has on their children. Between music therapy, instruments, and education, music is becoming apart of special needs children’s lives. Music therapy may be able to increase your child’s quality of life and there is an option of adding it to your child’s IEP. There are also tools that can be used by children with special needs to create music.
