General Information
Psicomotricity categories (Massage, Sing&Dance): You will have to do what you usually do in each of these moments following the rhythm and sound environment created by the exercise session you are listening to. The positive feelings which a baby receives during their first years of life will have very beneficial effects for their happiness.
Fine Psicomotricity categories (Play Instruments): This is the target activity with which we will conclude the ETFES Method at home. Your baby can improvise while listening on the different backing tracks found in the category Play Instruments. On the other hand, you can teach your baby basic piano exercises (Premium Access): even if you do not have musical or piano knowledge, the App will offer you different short videos that will let you transmit your child simple basic knowledge about the piano.
ETFES© Method – Ear Training For Early Stimulation. Motherhood & Parenting. Growth Through Neuroscience, Music, Art & Bond. The ETFES© Method represents the new early education. You will become your baby’s 1st music teacher even if you have no previous musical knowledge. Something that was previously unthinkable. Home is the only place where you can maintain the necessary consistency for your baby to memorize the sound of more than 2,000 musical language exercises. And you will do it through love, care and affection.
Remember that it is very different to start the ETFES© Method with 1 month, than with 18. The results will appear differently. Apart from that, each baby is different. So you should never compare your baby’s advances to the advances of another. Reactions can always be different.
It will take months to see benefits. It will most likely take about 6 months.
Never push yourself to measure progress. Every baby has his or her rhythm and must be respected. If you don’t see benefits, your baby will probably need more work to show them. It all depends on the age when the auditions start and how regularly the exercise sessions are heard.
Just because your baby isn’t showing the benefits yet doesn’t mean your baby is not getting them and won’t end up showing them.
Babies who have completed the ETFES© Method learn to play a musical instrument easily and can play rhythms frequently. They learn to sing the same way too.
Babies who have completed the ETFES© Method are more advanced in communication at the kindergarten. They have greater ability to solve mathematical problems. They solve them faster.
Babies who have completed the ETFES© Method have greater creative ability, are more innovative and have greater adaptive ability to solve situations.

ETFES Method© – Ear Training For Early Stimulation. Motherhood & Parenting. Growth Through Neuroscience, Music, Art & Bond.
If we increase the number of musical exercices, the synapses in the corresponding brain area will be activated more frequently. Repeating a specific activity generates stronger synapses. Strong synapses will favor connectivity and efficacy of the distinct neuronal networks, providing support for learning. The synapses which are only used once in a while will tend to be eliminated over time. It’s important to maintain a minimum consistency in our method!
In any learning process, repetition of a specific activity is the key. It generates stronger synapses (connections between neurons) that lead to learning.
The App will guide you to complete the needed repetitions between the different levels in each category. So that you only have to worry about playing the listening exercise sessions.
The ETFES© Method can help to sleep, relax, calm temper tantrums, calm colic, solve breastfeeding crises, among others. But it’s first goal is to improve your baby’s learning in an advanced, unique, progressive and innovative way.
Remember that learning processes that involve positive emotion generate better results. Similarly, affective stimulations are more effective and generate more neurotransmitters.

Babies who have completed the ETFES© Method are more advanced in communication at the kindergarten. They have greater ability to solve mathematical problems. They solve them faster. The same will happen in everyday situations.
In short, babies who have completed the ETFES© Method have greater creative ability, are more innovative and have greater adaptive ability to solve situations.
Never forget that completing the ETFES© Method is only a privileged beginning for learning in life. The emotional and learning skills will have to continue to be worked up throughout childhood, through youth.
We teach and make your baby think musically. Each category is divided into LEVELS. Each level has 3 exercise sessions related to each other with strategic notes on which your baby will get an auditory learning from the Neuroscience of music. Once you have completed 3 auditions of each exercise session, you will advance to the next level.
The initial exercises are very basic and respectful. The initial exercises start with the contrast between 2 notes (melodic intervals) and evolve strategically.
Note changes are designed to attract the attention of your baby, stimulate their speech and consequently their communication and learning.
Progressively will appear exercises with melodic intervals, harmonic intervals, scales, arpeggios, arpeggios with tensions, and all kinds of chords; as well as all kinds of diatonic modes (Ionic, Doric, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, Locrian, Harmonic, Melodic, Mixolydian b9b13, Lydianb7...). From the contrast between two notes to the creation of melodies and melodic variations!
These exercises will be connected to related compositions. Similarly, there will be exercises that will be deconstructions of compositions. The goal will always be to make your baby think musically. Thus creating the sought-after auditory stimulus.
Nothing happens if you work harder in an audition category than another, or if a category is barely worked. The method has been structured keeping this kind of behavior in mind.
The Play Instruments category will be the last to work in. Having completed a minimum of 1,000 minutes of auditory exercises, preferably.
The Dance&Sing category is a perfect complement to the auditory and instrumental work.
