Registration for fall is open! The 10 week fall session begins the week of September 13th.
Ten weekly, 45-minute classes include songs, rhythmic rhymes, movement, and instrument play. (6 classes in the summer) These activities are presented as informal, non-performance-oriented musical experiences--developmentally appropriate for children and easy for parents and caregivers--regardless of their own musical ability. 2 CDs, a parent guide for new families and a Songbook are included!
Below is our schedule of upcoming classes: SCROLL DOWN or click on the location you are interested in.
Notice the Older Kids Aged 3-6 classes! These classes may include activities with the piano in addition to singing, games, drumming and moving.
The Bilingual class is facilitated in Spanish! Great for families just learning Spanish and fun for fluent speakers!

Mixed Ages- birth through 4
This is the essential Music Together® class, one that a child can attend from birth through Kindergarten through all nine song collections. Younger children enjoy watching and imitating older ones; older children learn by leading younger ones; and the adults are happy because the children in the family can go to class together. The whole family is welcome for this important family music experience.

Older Kids Aged 3-6
This class is an extension of our younger mixed age Music Together class. They are similar in that they are mixed aged which is ideal as children can be at different stages of musical development regardless of their age. Younger children gain from the modeling of older children, while older children feel pride in being the example. The other similarity is that parents and caregivers continue to participate as they are still the strongest model for their child and will be able to continue this modeling throughout the week at home with the take home materials.
There will also be some differences. There will be more opportunities for child directed activities. Children will be encouraged to lead the class in new words and movements for songs. They will also be able to lead the class in rhythm patterns and other independent singing activities. We will play games and other engaging activities that are specifically designed for older children.
Younger siblings over the age of 9 months will not be able to attend the class as the activities will not always be appropriate for them.
This class is now an optional drop off program! We love to see parent involvement, but realize it can be difficult. Please continue to sing and music with your child at home if you can not join us in class :)

Music Together for Bilingual Families
This is a Music Together class facilitated in Spanish. The teacher will speak Spanish and there will be translations of the parent education material in Spanish. We will use our usual Music Together songbooks and CDs which typically feature one song in Spanish. The other songs are in English. The teacher may add 2 or 3 additonal songs in Spanish to use throughout the session. Free Dance and Playalong music will sometimes feature music from Spanish speaking cultures.
