Thank you to everyone who participated in web contest.  For our final question, we asked you to tell us the start and end dates of the 2012-13 session.  Classes will begin the week of September 10, 2012 and end the week of May 13, 2013.  Christine DeMartini has those dates on her calendar and has won credits to the Kindermusik website.  She’ll be able to download songs for her family to listen to until classes begin again!  But, did you know that you can enroll ANYTIME?  Enrollment is always open because we don’t want anyone to miss out on the wonderful experience waiting for them in a weekly Kindermusik class.  And, with online enrollment and easy automatic monthly payments, it couldn’t be more convenient to make a weekly visit to InJoy Music part of your routine.

We are pleased to announce that Nikki Winkler has won our grand prize.  For your daily participation in our contest, you’ll receive a $25 credit toward your September tuition!  And, because we are so excited about the site and the contest, we want to reward the rest of our daily participants with a $10 credit toward their September tuition– Congratulations to Christine DeMartini, Patty Hamel, Cheri Milligan, and Laura Hamons.

Most of all, we hope this helped make online communications with us part of your week. Don’t forget to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube  (just click the appropriate icon at the top of this page). Interact with us by commenting on blog posts and Facebook status updates. Plan to join us for a Kindermusik Playdate in August… we love to see each of you in person!

Today is the last day of our web contest.  We hope that it has helped you become familiar with our new website.  On Friday, we asked two questions and we are pleased to announce that Cheri Milligan correctly told us that the piano method taught at InJoy Music is called Simply Music.  Cheri, we hope you enjoy downloading some of your favorite  songs with credits to the Kindermusik Website.   Lindsey Montello knew that the Imagine That! classes will love learning and singing together with Cities and Hello Weather, Let’s Play Together during the 2012-13 session.  Lindsey, we know your Kindermusik family will enjoy listening to the Best of Kindermuisk: Volume 2 CD.     Don’t forget to answer today’s question and then check in tomorrow morning to find out the winner of the InJoy Music Web Contest Grand Prize!

Believe it or not, the new school year is right around the corner.  Enrollment for the 2012-13 school year is well underway.  If you haven’t enrolled in a class, it’s easy to sign up online anytime.

Contest Information

To celebrate the launch of the new online home of InJoy Music, we’re kicking off a week of online contests to help you discover all the things the website has to offer.

From July 22nd through July 29th, check the blog for the question of the day. Find the answer on our website and email your answer to Heather Mayfield, Communications Coordinator. All correct answers will be entered into a daily drawing for Kindermusik prizes.

Enter each day with the correct answer and be entered into a special drawing for a very special grand prize.

Contest Rules: Entries must be received by 11:59pm each day to be included in the daily contest. Winner chosen each day from random drawing of all correct entries. Any person who submits correct answers every day of the contest by the deadline will be entered into the grand prize drawing at the end of the contest period. Winners will be announced on the InJoy Music blog.

Hello Loyal Web Contest Participants (and new participants, too!).  You may be thinking that it seems awfully late in the afternoon to just be posting today’s contest and you’re correct.  Miss Heather is preparing to participate in her first triathlon tomorrow and has spent the day on pre-race preparations.  In the excitement, I completely forgot to schedule today’s posting to upload.  Since tomorrow morning during our usual posting time, I will be swimming, riding a bike or running (then NAPPING!), we’ll post two questions today.

To give everyone a fair opportunity to participate, you can submit answers for question 6 and question 7 anytime between now and 11:59pm on Saturday, July 28th.   One winner will be drawn from correct answers for question 6 and another winner will be drawn for question 7.   Keep those answers coming!  We have a handful of people in the running for the grand prize, which will be announced Monday morning.

Yesterday, we asked you what year InJoy Music was founded.  Miss Amy opened her studio in 2003.  Since then, many children have enjoyed Kindermusik and piano lessons.  Congratulations to Patty Hamel who correctly answered the question.  Patty, you’ve won two sets of rhythm sticks to play along with your favorite Kindermusik songs at home.

Did you know that once your child has completed Kindermusik for the Young Child, he or she is perfectly prepared to begin piano lessons at the same studio you already know and love?

Question 6: What is the name of the piano method taught at InJoy Music?

During any Kindermusik semester, our Imagine That! classes are full of things preschoolers love– pretending, singing, simple games, and friendships.  This class also represents a rite of passage as parents participate only in the last 15 minutes of class.  This mini-preschool experience is a perfect way to encourage your child’s growing autonomy in a comfortable setting where your child can thrive.

Question 7: Name one theme in 2012-13 for Preschoolers.

Thanks to those of you who told us the answer to yesterday’s question.  Many of you correctly told us that before coming to teach at InJoy Music, Miss Erin lived in Urbana, Illinois where she was a board-certified musical therapist.  Congratulations to Natalie Wyrick who won 2 sets of Kindermusik rhythm sticks (or as we say in class, “One pair for you, one pair for a grown up”)!

Don’t forget that people who submit a correct answer each day are automatically entered in the grand prize drawing at the conclusion of the contest.  You don’t want to miss out– it’s a very grand prize!

Kindermusik classes provide an opportunity to spend one-on-one time with your child each week.  But what about families with more than one child?  We’ve got that covered, too.  Our Family Time classes offer the chance for the whole family to attend class together each week.  Which leads us to today’s question.

Question 3: What special pricing applies to siblings 6 months old and younger enrolled in Family Time?
