"VILLAGE" Class - Dream Pillow
For ages birth to 1 1/2 years
This title alone brings images of rocking, cuddling, singing and lulling to sleep. But leading up to sleepy time are many upbeat and playful activities. Babies and adults will swirl to a dreamy cloud dance “Meet Me Tonight in Dreamland.” They’ll also play baby appropriate instruments to “Aiken Drum,” and “Sarasponda.” Favorite nursery rhymes like “Wee Willie Winkie" and “Diddle, Diddle, Dumpling” are sprinkled throughout the classes. It’s easy to weave many of the class songs and activities into your families’ daily routines.

"OUR TIME" Class - Milk & Cookies
For ages 1 1/2 to 3 years
Make everyday home activities and chores easier and more fun with music! Cook and sing to “The Muffin Man;" dust and clean to the original song “In My House;" get ready to wash clothes to the delightful poem “Washing Machine." Baking cookies, eating cupcakes, blowing on hot cross buns, wiggling like jelly, going grocery shopping and making tea are all represented in familiar as well as new songs. Move, play and sing together in developmentally appropriate activities created just for 1-½ through 3-year-olds. Capture the familiar and new moments of the day and learn how music can impact your toddler.

"Sing & Play" 4-Week Class - Yum!
For ages 1 and 2 years
Get ready to sing, play and move with your little one in this high-energy music class designed to be just right for children under two years of age. This new Kindermusik curriculum focuses on your child's beginning movement, helping to build the muscles your baby needs to walk and helping to nurture your child’s speaking and singing voice. With a mix of both parent-child joint activities and child-focused activities, you’ll be able to join right in on all the singing and dancing, while also getting the chance to observe how your older baby or toddler learns on her own.
