Kindermusik Village (birth to 18 months)

Purposeful musical activities stimulate the cognitive and language, social and emotional, as well as physical developments that all begin in the very first days of a child's life. In a 45 minutes session, parents, caregivers and babies are immersed in a musical environment focusing on the interactive nature of the total development of the whole child in body, mind and spirit.  Strong bonds are established and reconfirmed as both you and your child delight in music-making.

At Home Materials: Picture book, baby's home journal, home CD, art banners, vinyl carrying case (view sample)

Kindermusik Our Time (18 months to 3.5 years)

Kindermusik Our Time is for your toddlers & preschoolers who demonstrate improved motor skills, a longer attention span, and an ability to follow simple directions.  This curriculum focuses on a child's healthy emotional and social development, at the same time recognizing his need for both independence and support. Parents participate for the full 45 minutes of class, which meets once a week.

At Home Materials: Carrying case or bag, 2 CDs, rhythm instruments, home activity book, 2 literature books (view sample)

Kindermusik Imagine That! (3 to 5 years)

Imagine That! embraces the exuberance of the 3 to 5-year-old in a musical learning curriculum that integrates music, expressive language, peer interaction and pretend play. Imagine a city where people shuffle their feet to a 4/4 beat, street musicians serenade and sing, and clock towers boom, bellow and ring. Parents are welcome to drop-off kids or stay for the full 45 minutes of class.

At Home Materials: Child-sized backpack, 2 CDs, specially designed instrument, home activity book, interactive play set, 2 literature books (view sample)

ALL NEW SUMMER CAMPS

 

Ages N to 18 months (Village class)

"Peekaboo, I Love You!" More than a curious story, Mother Goose games such as peek-a-boo help your baby understand language.  Uncover more ways to say “I love you” using bubbles, American Sign Language and parent-baby dances. Connect with other   newborns and families in the community and learn how using music improves your child’s development.  Materials include At-Home kit.

 

Ages 18months to 3 years (Our Time class)

"ZOO TRAIN!"  Your toddler and the train make a natural match – always on the move. Bring your own stuffed animals for the petting zoo. Wear long white socks on your hands for polar bear paws. Sing songs for clapping time and use music to help toddlers regulate emotions.  Materials include At-Home kit and a snack.

 

 Ages 3 to 5 years (Imagine That! class)

"ON THE ROAD" Relive your childhood with your child.  Every song is likely to revive a memory of your summers’ past.  Play “Eye Spy” and find shapes in the clouds to pass the time.  Take imaginary trips to vacation destinations on a bus named “Van Go.”  Materials include At-Home kit, snack and a camp T-shirt.
