Early Years Workshop: Working with the perinatal stage, conception to age 2
Event description
Creating impactful Early Years Work – Workshop Series
Workshop 3: Working with the perinatal age (0-2)
Last year Youth Music invested over £1million in music-making projects for children aged 0 – 5 (also known as the Early Years). We know that making music with our youngest members of society is important, exciting, and challenging work. It requires dedicated organisations and a dedicated workforce that are skilled & knowledgeable, reflective & adaptive and excited about championing the musical skills of young children.
Through this series of 3 workshops, we aim to explore some of the key ingredients for working with this age group.
Who these workshops are for:
- Organisations who want to develop work with 0-5 yr olds and/or are thinking about applying to Youth Music
- Music Education Hubs looking to embed Early Years in their offer
- Organisations/Music Leaders working in the Early Years who want to reflect on their current offer and delivery.
- Anyone interested in developing high quality, inclusive and child-centred music-making with 0-5 yr olds.
Delivered by Jo Scrimgeour, Jo Alleyne and Matt Thomason from WILD Young Parents. This session will involve a deep dive into Mentalisation; how you can practically introduce activities into sessions. And we’ll be talking about how to engage parents to be more active participants in music-making with small children.
Free to attend, open to all and anyone can come - you don't have to attended other workshops.
