It’s never too early to introduce your kids to the love of music, and how fun to participate in it with them! This class is for a parent to accompany their little duckling (6 month-old babies - 3 years old), and join them on a musical adventure.
Give your child the gift of music in our fun and dynamic music class! Children and grownups will engage in lots of music activities - singing, dancing, listening, bonding, exploring many musical and percussive instruments, and moving to catchy tunes and beats.
Consistent participation in class will allow your child to gain so many important developmental skills that support your child’s growth in their physical, socio-emotional, academic, and overall brain development. Imagine a place full of energy and joy, where babies, toddlers, and grownups explore and grow creatively within a supportive and positive environment. It’s music and fun for the whole family!
*Parents and/or caregivers attend the class with your child. Please bring plenty of water and leave snacks outside the classroom.*
