“…From about three months before birth the foetus can hear a variety of sounds from the extrauterine world. This enables the developing foetus to share and acquire preferences for the family's music, culture and voices (Moon, 2011). The mother's behaviour, the way she moves and acts, also becomes familiar to the foetus and is reflected in her voice (Moon, 2011).…”

“…Social behaviour such as attachment and communication may even be established before birth through auditory experience (Moon, 2011). In the womb, the foetus grows familiar with the interior sounds of the mother, continuously enriched by the multimodal sensory environment; the steady rhythm of the mother's heart and breathing, her bloodstream's swoosh and the music of her prosody where the musical qualities of the voice are salient in the perinatal experience of speech (Moon, 2011(Moon, , 2017Moon, Lagercrantz, & Kuhl, 2013). From about three months before birth the foetus can hear a variety of sounds from the extrauterine world.…”

Infant-directed singing is a medium for parents and infants to communicate in a mutual relationship. Parental infantdirected singing is a multisensory, biopsychosocial communication that applies to ill and vulnerable hospitalised infants. The primary musical features of infant-directed singing are ideal for emotional coordination and sharing between parent and infant without the risk of over-stimulation. In this article, we suggest that parental infant-directed singing is regarded as a nonpharmacological emotion regulation intervention, which may modify the painful experience for both the infant and the parent before, during and after painful procedures in the neonatal intensive care context. Parents have the biopsychosocial resources to alleviate their infant's pain through infant-directed singing, if they are empowered to do so and coached in this process. A music therapist specialised in neonatal music therapy methods can mentor parents in how to use entrained and attuned live lullaby singing in connection to painful procedures. Pain and the vast amount of painful procedures early in infancy, combined with early parent-infant separation and lack of parental participation in the care of the infant during neonatal intensive care, place arduous strain on the new family's attachment process and on the infant's and parents' mental health, both from a short and long-term perspective. Therefore, we argue with biopsychosocial rationales, that live parental infant-directed singing should be promoted in neonatal pain care worldwide. Consequently, parents should be welcomed round the clock and invited as prescribed pain management for their infant.

“…10,18 Therefore, the age of 6 months represents a critical target for initial interventions in infants with hearing loss to optimize functional outcomes. 19 The functional consequences of hearing loss depend on the age of onset and the specific subcategory of the hearing loss described earlier. Although bilateral deafness is most incapacitating, even unilateral hearing loss may affect language and educational performance.…”

Sensory development is complex, with both morphologic and neural components. Development of the senses begins in early fetal life, initially with structures and then in-utero stimulation initiates perception. After birth, environmental stimulants accelerate each sensory organ to nearly complete maturity several months after birth. Vision and hearing are the best studied senses and the most crucial for learning. This article focuses on the cranial senses of vision, hearing, smell, and taste. Sensory function, embryogenesis, external and genetic effects, and common malformations that may affect development are discussed, and the corresponding sensory organs are examined and evaluated.
