 That is prescal child beating a drum in sequence an adult drummer. Here is the prescaler who cannot find the rhythm. Researchers find that the first child who can match the drum beats is more likely to have better early language skills and reading potential. The study is in the preceding of the national academy of science. Rhythm is the key factor in communication, speech rhythm provides important queues for meaning. Babies pick up the rhythm that we all use it to help us to identify syllables 1 and words.

And an adult drummer beat a tempo 2 maintained mimic 3 the speed of the speech. 22 children could be along and 13 could not. Children who captured the beats were faster in naming the objects and colors, had superior short-term auditory memory and were better at rhythm and melody discrimination. These skills are all related to language and reading. The researchers suggest that such a drum test could identify children with early language literacy challenges and training could help the kids to overcome these challenges in part by learning to keep up with a beat.
