Have you ever found yourself marching around the kitchen like a dinosaur or jump, jump, pump it up, chipmunk at the gas pump? If so, you already know our guest!
In Episode 8 of the Active Play, Every Day podcast, Dr. Emily Greenwald sits down with the undisputed queen of children’s music, Laurie Berkner, to discuss how music truly gets you moving.
Inside this episode, listeners will learn:
How Laurie discovered the magic of the human tempo, which prompts movement and aligns with your body's rhythm
The importance of demonstrating the movement, and being a part of the experience (yes, you should dance!)
Designing and building songs, playlists, and even concert playlists around a child’s development and behavior regulation to help with transitions or ramped-up energy
How schools and educators can use Laurie Berkner Bytes and Breaks within their class planning to integrate music and movement in other parts of the day
How you can use music to help you remember everyday things (like your bank account) and motivate others to change the mood or to move, even when they don’t want to
