This class enables families to learn songs and rhymes that nurture a sense of wonder and a love of music for a lifetime! At the beginning of each class there is an optional 15 minute opportunity for child and parent to explore instruments, movement props, and to socialize. Community and music go hand in hand! Then, there is 30 minutes of structured activity for child-adult participation. Words for songs and rhymes are shared so that the fun can continue at home.
WHO: Age birth through 3 years. Children are well-suited for this class if they have a willing adult (parent, caregiver, grandparent, etc) to participate with them. Any siblings older than 3 are welcome to tag along to class so long as they are not a distraction.
WHAT: Activities and music are chosen and presented using proven, research-backed methods of early child development and music education pedagogy.
