We used to think that once we got to be a certain age, our brain was the way it was going to be, and that was that. We have since learned that the brain changes over time, and we can work on forming new connections even as we get older.

Often times, when I tell people I am a music therapist for children under the age of 3, I get a surprised look and a follow-up question that is something like, “how does that work? They are so little!” And yes, it is true!
