Kindermusik Family Time

 

Music class for families with multiple children ages newborn and up

In fifteen weeks, you'll play instruments together, dance together, share, and take turns, and see how music can bring you closer as a family.

A one-room schoolhouse approach to music. With older children ready to show the little ones how it's done and the younger ones eager to learn, Family Time becomes a multi-layered learning environment. Each week, a Kindermusik Educator will introduce basic musical concepts and then give you the instruments, and the structured free time to put those concepts into play.

Your children will listen to instruments and to each other, learn from their peers and older children, and enjoy music and movement with hoops, scarves and tumble-around play. Story time and family jams, puppet play and happy singing—all the Family Time activities encourage discovery and exploration and foster sharing and social skills too. In this special place for musical, social and emotional learning, your children will strengthen their ties with each other and with you—and they'll start developing the skills they'll need in school and on the neighborhood playground.

One convenient class the family can take together

Introduces musical concepts and musical skills

Allows each child to develop social skills-- such as sharing and turn-taking-- in a multi-age, multi-child environment

Strengthens the emotional bond among family members

       

 

Fall 2010 Theme (semester begins August 16th)

Make Way for Music

This romping, rolling, stretching good time for the whole family will explore lots of different ways to move—high and low, fast and slow, zigzag, curvy, and more. Family members will chug around the classroom like trains, clip-clop like horses, and roll over like puppy dogs.

A parent or caregiver attends each 45-minute weekly class.
