Celebrate your preschooler’s growing independence and love of the outdoors in “The Cycle of Seasons”, a Musikgarten curriculum. Developed to build attention and self-expression, activities include singing, chanting, moving, focused listening, musical games, exploring musical instruments, creative movement, and storytelling. The Cycle of Seasons nurtures your growing child’s ability to use language and participate in dramatic play within a musical context.
This class is for both children and their parents, with each class, featuring learning opportunities to help further your child’s love and natural aptitudes for music, along with activities that can aide in developing oh-so-important fine motor and pre-reading skills!
Toddlers
Ages 1.5 - 3.5
Welcome to Family Music for Toddlers, a Musikgarten curriculum.
These weekly classes are action-filled for toddlers—full of energy, often on the move, always exploring and learning—and their parents. Together you’ll sing, chant, move, dance, listen, and play simple instruments. These are all activities that bridge the natural connection between music and movement through four wonder-filled semesters.
Each lesson features movement activities for coordination, body awareness and control, exploration of space, and instruments such as rhythm sticks, jingles, rattles, drums, and resonator bars.
