Kindermusik classes provide a playful, supportive environment for children and their caregivers to play together with music- dancing, singing, exploring instruments, and more. Activities designed specifically for each stage of early childhood support infants’ and children’s development across cognitive, social-emotional, and physical domains while building an understanding of simple musical concepts.

Our Foundations classes offer a sensory-rich yet caring and gentle environment where infants will explore and react to new sounds, sensations, objects, and movements.

Level 1 classes provide young toddlers with a stimulating setting to explore their new movement and language skills with a sense of security, comfort, and confidence.

Level 2 classes encourage older toddlers to initiate their own ideas, nurturing social-emotional growth and cognitive development in a playful, exploratory environment.

Level 3 classes are designed to engage preschoolers’ natural love of music and activate their imaginations, while developing their growing language and social-emotional skills.This is an hour long class in which children participate on their own for about the first 40 minutes, and then caregivers (and siblings if they're there) join in for the last 20 minutes.
