Fear of crowds

My 3 and half year old is afraid of crowds and loud music, what should I do to help him get out of this fear?

I"m not sure.  It may be a phase and I'd just kind of avoid it if possible.  It could be auditory/ sensory processing issues and  you'll know that if it does not go away.  Kids with this find their systems overwhelmed and can't cope and thus meltdown.  We didn't go to fire works for a couple of years because my boys covered their ears and were unhappy.  Now they love them.  (they are 4 and 5).  But my 5 year old has sensory issues though.  I'd just be empathetic about it.  If you have to go, go and if not, don't.  Control what you can and just make it through the rest.  I know this isn't too helpful.  But most likely,  he will outgrow this.  Most kids do.  Good luck.
