Kindermusik

Music is a balm for the heart AND mind. Young brains are searching for order, and music helps make those connections that are essential to early childhood development and school readiness.
Yehudi Menuhin

There are so many joyful musical sounds in a Kindermusik class. When the instruments come out, the smiles do, too! 🎶

"Our reactions to unusual sounds and sights can occur naturally, but grownups nurturing the listening skills, self-control (think: standing still to watch the hummingbird), and conversation it takes to really appreciate the beauty around us is critical for children."

5 Aesthetic Awareness Activities for Kids Building aesthetic awareness goes hand-in-hand with developing listening skills, self-control, and more. Here are 5 easy ways to get started...

Little ears take in so much! Here's how you can ensure they're getting the most out of what they hear:
✓ Model being still and quiet as you listen
✓ Label the sound (That's a bird!)
✓ Mimic the sound (Caw! Caw!)

Try these ideas for sound scavenger hunts:
✓ Outdoor walk (animals, wind)
✓ In the kitchen (refrigerator hum, sink)
✓ At the playground (swings, slide)

And you can always come to a class to try out instruments!

And with every note, there is a promise of growth. 🎶

You don't have to be a parent to attend! Bonding with all types of caregivers and friends are important, and a Kindermusik class helps them unfold.
