2024 FREE Summer Concerts in Livingston County
Music is for everyone, including the tiniest of learners! Exposing children to music during early development helps them learn the sounds, patterns, and meanings of words. Dancing to music helps children build motor skills while allowing them to practice self-expression. For children and adults, music even helps with strengthening memory skills.
Studies have found that musical experiences in childhood can even accelerate brain development, particularly in the areas of language acquisition and reading skills.
There are loads of great ways to expose children to music right here in Livingston County. To get started, check out these 2024 FREE summer concerts for a fun way to enjoy music together with your child, or as a date night with your significant other.
