How does music help Babies sleep?
The Sleepy Science
Pop a few lullabies on for your baby and they fall drift off into a peaceful sleep. But how exactly do baby sleep songs send babies into dream world?
In truth, sleepy scientists are still investigating the reasons why music has the impact on our physical statews, such as music's effects on heart rate and quality of sleep.
What they have found is that music, particularly sleeping songs such as lullabies, stimulates the secretion of hormones in the brain.
An example of this is when babies are listening to lullabies, their brains release oxytocin, which is a hormone that helps babies to sleep.
Obviously Piccolo's lullabies can be listened to and enjoyed purely for the liking for the music however it is interesting to find out a little bit of the science behind the physical impacts of playing sleeping songs for babies.
The power of music really is CRAZY!
