We sing, dance, chant, and play musical instruments.
Did you know that all children are musical? Have you ever wondered what you can do to nurture the musical growth of your child, regardless of your own musical ability?
The program, which meets for ten 45 minute sessions, is designed for children ages birth through kindergarten and the grownups who love them. Our Music Together® classes build on your child's natural enthusiasm for music and movement and is based on the premise that all children have the innate ability to learn music as a language.
Music Together classes bring parents together to sing and move with their children to a rich, balanced vocabulary of music with tonalities and rhythms from around the world. It is through the special relationship that you have with your child that a love of music and music making is learned. COME AND DISCOVER THE JOY OF MAKING MUSIC TOGETHER WITH YOUR CHILD!!!

"Music brings us together in song and dance, in ritual and play. It
inspires and consoles us. It is a way to pass down traditions from
generation to generation... But not only is music one of the fundamental
ways we bond with each other, it literally shapes our brains. Musical
activity involves many parts of the brain (emotional, motor, and cognitive
areas), even more than we use for our other great human achievement,
language... Music is much more than a beautiful luxury: It is a fundamental
way of expressing our humanity - and it is often our best medicine." -
Oliver Sacks, MD.
