“Children who grow up hearing music, singing songs, and moving to the beat are enjoying what experts call "a rich sensory environment." That's just a fancy way of saying a child is exposed to a wide variety of tastes, smells, textures, colors, and sounds. And kids who enjoy such a rich environment do more than have fun. Researchers believe they forge more pathways between the cells in their brains.”
The music also does not have to be complex, and you do not have to be a good singer! Your child will love you singing to them, even if you feel you are completely tone deaf.
So start singing, you don’t have to do anything complex! You can sing any old nursery rhymes or songs, and you can even make up your own songs, to match what you are doing at the time.
For me, when I put Hyzyd to bed when he's still a month old, his favorite is "Here I am to Worship". No matter how cranky he is, he calmed down when I sing it for him.
These days he loves singing and dancing with me everytime I sing nursery songs like "two little eyes", "head, shoulders, knees and toes", "Wind the Bobbin Up" and many more!

I agree! Exposure to songs does a lot to their holistic development :) Great for emotional bonding too.
