A course designed for you and your little one(s) to explore the building blocks of early music education, creative movement, and each other. Focusing on being developmentally-appropriate, the classes provide a natural way to experience musical concepts, such as tempo, pitch and volume, space, shape, time, force, flow and rhythm. Playing musical games with special props, we discover what our bodies and voices can do. Percussion instruments help us express the beat. Singing traditional nursery rhymes teaches rhythm through languages. We may learn to appreciate many types of sounds by listening to recordings of various musical genres and forms. Creative responses and imagination to emerge. Infants, toddlers and preschoolers delight in a playful environment of discovery. Caregivers enjoy the special bonding time with their loved ones as they explore music and movement in a creative class.
