Little Be.a.r. Frequency Zones
You may not realize it, but sound plays an important part in how healthy you are. Certain frequencies can lift you up and energize you, while others can make you tired, depressed, un-motivated and transport you into illness. How efficiently and effectively we listen is important to our health and well-being. For children with developmental delays, their ears are not capturing certain frequencies that are connected to different brain and body functions. If we train their ears and brain to pick up those missing frequencies, we can enhance their listening, teach them new skills and they can become better learners. When they listen better, they learn better! Our sound engineering
process breaks up the audible spectrum of Mozart to give your child isolated frequencies in a methodical format so that the brain can make new neurons and jump-start your child's climb up the developmental ladder. Does your child show these signs of a listening problem?
Three frequency zones divide the audible spectrum that we use in Little Be.a.r.
If your child has trouble in ANY of these frequency zones and can't perform the brain
or body activity associated with a zone, let us help you re-train their ears and brain with
one of our membership programs.
(1) the Little Be.a.r. Foundation Zone,
(2) the Little Be.a.r. Communication Zone; and
(3) the Little Be.a.r. Imagination Zone
The Foundation zone encompasses low frequencies from about 20Hz -750/1000 Hz.
This is considered the zone that works on the body and corresponds to the functions of the
vestibular system (inner ear) and sensory integration. Balance, coordination, muscle tone, rhythm/timing,
and sense of direction can all be negatively affected if your child isn't perceiving the low frequencies. This zone is the foundation for all other frequency zones and it is hard, to nearly impossible, for your child to climb the developmental ladder without this foundation.

​
The Communication zone encompasses middle frequencies of approximately 750/1000Hz-4000 Hz.
These frequencies are the “English” language speaking frequencies and work the speech and language, attention, focus, concentration and memory. If the foundation zone is not set and your child has sensory and body issues, they will most likely have speech and language issues with poor attention and focus - you can't walk before you crawl!
​
​
​
The Imagination zone is home to the high frequencies above about 4000 Hz.
These frequencies work the functions of energizing the brain, imagination, imaginary play, creativity, spatial reasoning, motor planning as well as humor and spirituality. If the middle frequencies are not set and your child has speech and language delays, they most likely will have difficulty in the imagination zone and playing with toys appropriately or creatively, sequencing a task or able to motor plan (ie: pedal a bike, use a fork/spoon).
