Baby Music of Abilene: Suzuki Early Childhood Education

Our adorable little ones are in eager learning mode this semester!

Marching rhythms and pitches, experiencing high and low pitches, learning concepts with classroom instruments. These are all part of learning music when you are a baby or toddler. It’s a bonus to have beautiful books to read at the end of class. We think we have the most wonderful classes in the world!

Some celebrities attended Baby Music last night. They sang and played xylophone. We were honored.

They are not just learning Eensy Weensy Spider words and actions! They are sharing space, cooperating, coordinating actions with concepts of “up, down, out”. The rain stick is a beautiful sound and the colors of the beads catch the eye. Sing with your children at home!!

These special moments! Discoveries. Motor skills. Observations. Patience. Cooperation among friends and teachers and parents. The Suzuki leaning triangle of Student-Parent-Teacher is truly a lovely way to learn. ❤️🎶🍁
