OUTLINE: ‘Children’s music education materials should be chosen as carefully as choosing food for them.’ Zoltan Kodaly 
This hands-on, interactive workshop will investigate the links between music and young children’s development, success in other areas of the curriculum and self-regulation. The importance of choosing music experiences of a high quality for young children will be explored, because ‘for the very young, only the best is good enough.’
