What parents and children will experience in the class
Variety of Music
Musical diversity builds strong neural pathways in a baby’s forming mind, which is why each Kindermusik® semester contains an array of styles, sounds, and genres.
Instrument Play
Age-appropriate experiences with child-safe instruments enhance a sense of rhythm and steady beat, develops a keen awareness of the distinguishing qualities of sound, and encourages spontaneity and creativity
Dance
A classroom full of baby and adult pairs dancing together helps a little body develop the muscle strength needed to crawl and walk and helps a little heart to fall in love with the sheer joy of responding to music
Together Time
A Kindermusik® class is truly the essence of “quality time,” offering the parent a place to create special memories with their child, gain new insights into their child’s development and nurture their child’s natural love of music.

Vocal play
Through vocal play, toddlers learn to form vowels and consonants, say words and phrases, and imitate rhythm and vocal inflection. In Kindermusik Our Time, vocal play is presented within the context of songs, chants, and activities done in class.
Exploration Time
Children will love discovering specially designed instruments, textures, sounds and movements.
Story time and early literacy

Movement Activities
Each class provides various opportunities for movement such as synchronized movement, group dances and circle games, and even expressive movement.
