Abstract

Children interact with the world through sensations and movements, which generate different perceptions and allow the construction of knowledge and motor skills acquisition. This study shows a rhythmic and sound stimulatory hands-on workshop elaboration and application, which involves the use of musical resources with sensorimotor stimulation techniques that constitute an instrument for preventing, facilitating, or correcting child neuropsychomotor development. Four activities were elaborated (Slave of Jo Chain, Body Music, Making Rhythm, and Color/Sound Memory Game) taken together as the “Sound and Movement” workshop applied during the Museum of Neurosciences traveling actions in formal and non-formal teaching spaces of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Musical instruments and accessories were used to help specific skills development such as body, directional, spatial, and temporal awareness. We observed a wide public adherence to activities with broad participation from children to elderly people, as well as people with disabilities, totaling 7,680 participants.
