(0-5 years)

This is the essential Music Together^® class, one that a child can attend from birth through kindergarten—and through all nine song collections. This basic class follows the recommendations of child development researchers—grouping children of a variety of ages in one class. This approach fosters natural, family-style learning where younger children enjoy watching and imitating older ones; older children learn by leading younger ones; and adults are happy because the children in the family can go to class together. Each child participates at his or her own developmental level in singing, moving, chanting, listening, observing, or exploring musical instruments.

We welcome the whole family to join in this important family music experience and any caregiver—parents, grandparents, nanny—can bring the child(ren) to class. 

Join us for the BELLS SONG COLLECTION this WINTER!

In the upcoming song collection, families will play with their voices by mimicking the sounds of instruments in the "French Folk Song," and Spanish-speaking animals in "De Colores." (Did you know that in Spanish, roosters say "Quiri-quiri quiri" to wake people up?) Making funny animal sounds, lip-burring and other tonal play helps children explore their vocal register, discover their singing voices and distinguish them from their speaking voices. And since children learn from contrasts and by expressing music with their full bodies, you'll be hopping lightly like birds and sliding smoothly like an iceskater. You'll have so much fun you won't even notice that you're learning staccato and legato!

In addition to your weekly classes, your registration includes recordings and materials for you to use at home, including an illustrated songbook and access to the songs through the Music Together app.
