"Rincón de música para el desarrollo cognitivo de los niños de 1 a 3 años del centro de desarrollo infantil Kindiwas"

Abstract

This thesis addresses the importance of the music corner in the cognitive development of children aged 1 to 3 years at the Kindiwas Child Development Center. The research is based on the problem of a lack of adequate educational spaces for early stimulation, which limits comprehensive development in the early years of life. The objective was to implement a music corner that enhances cognitive abilities through playful and sensory experiences that stimulate creativity, attention, and thinking. A descriptive methodology with a mixed approach was used, based on bibliographic, documentary, and field research. Assessment tools were applied to the children at the Child Development Center, which identified that 33% were not achieving the expected level, 55% were in the process of achieving it, and only 12% had achieved the expected level in cognitive indicators. These results demonstrate the need to stimulate and strengthen strategies. In response, the music corner was adapted as an innovative tool for the Child Development Center.
