Meet some of our winter puppet friends!

Cochiti Kids Winter Family Fun Day is just around the corner! On Saturday 20 February (2-4pm), we will be gathering to celebrate special winter events. We’ll dance in the New Year with a folkdance (“Nigun Attik”); we’ll do a simplified “Strip the Willow” for Burns Night; and then we’ll shake to the “Mardi Gras Mambo” from New Orleans. Not to mention singing songs about sledging down the slippery slope, a chubby little snowman, and five little Inuit Indians who live in an igloo. Fun for ALL the family—grandparents, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers. New and old friends welcome! (£8 family; snacks following; at Shawlands United Reformed Church Hall, 111 Moss-side Road).

Cochiti Kids WINTER classes have kicked off. But, my oh my, won't we have fun this week--singing and dancing about the SNOW!! It's not every week that the real world of nature cooperates with our imaginary adventures at music group! We have a lovely bunch of people at each of the two groups--you and your child(ren) are more than welcome to join us at either! (Mondays 1-3pm; Tuesdays 10-noon)

Want to know one of Glasgow Southside’s best-kept secrets?

Over the past 18 years, children from 0-5 years have been enjoying Cochiti Kids—an entertaining, relaxing and educational music class. Children (as well as mothers, fathers, grandparents and carers!) love its unique programme of songs, poems and simple dances from around the world. Each week, an hour of musical activities is followed by an hour of socialising (with refreshments provided) in a spacious, comfortable hall.

Children choose from an extensive collection of percussion instruments to play in a band with Kris on saxophone, guitar and violin. Even young babies benefit from the live music, gentle movement, and the visual stimulation of colourful puppets and props. The small-group sessions are lively and imaginative, and the atmosphere is very friendly, making it a great place to foster a love of music.

Check out what some of our regulars have said about Cochiti Kids sessions!

“My sons really love this class. It's brilliant that they get exposure to so many different musical instruments and that there are opportunities to run, jump, march and dance. A lovely variety of music too.”

“Family day with Kris, as with all her sessions, is creative, dynamic, engaging and provides a great opportunity to do something meaningful together as a family - with refreshments thrown in.”

“If you're looking for a fun, sociable, and educational activity for your wee one then look no further.”

You can enrol for either Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning classes, which run at the Shawlands United Reformed Church Hall by contacting Kris on 07800975426 or at [email protected].

-- The first 5-week course will run from Monday 11 and Tuesday 12 January through Monday 8 and Tuesday 9 February 2016. (£30 for adult + 1 child; £35 for adult + 2 or more siblings)

-- The second 5-week course will run from Monday 22 and Tuesday 23 February through Monday 21 and Tuesday 22 March 2016.

Every two months Cochiti Kids also have a special SATURDAY FAMILY FUN DAY (2-4 pm) at Shawlands United Reformed Church. The next WINTER Family Fun Day is Saturday 20 February 2016. EVERYBODY (including school-age children) is welcome! Newcomers Welcome! (£8/family)

Thanks to everyone who came along for our Christmas FAMILY FUN DAY last Saturday. The next Cochiti Kids Family Fun Day will be Saturday 20 February 2016!
