Kindermusik classes give both parent(s) and child(ren) the opportunity to interact and meet other families during a unique musical experience. During these sessions, parents have the opportunity to learn more about their child’s unique developmental process, and share a learning experience which creates a unique bond as their child learns with fun, musical play. Activities during the classes vary, including experimenting with various musical instruments, relaxation techniques, dancing to a steady beat, and much more. A Kindermusik session includes five 60 minute classes, with the exposure to music, stories, crafts, and snacks. These sessions are designed to nurture a child’s natural curiosity, one that eventually draws them towards learning new words, new numbers, and new big ideas.
