Mixed Ages

Birth to 4 years: Activities focus on adult/child interaction rather than child/child interaction, so children of different ages (such as siblings) can enjoy class together. Also, many childhood educators consider mixed-age groupings beneficial and the process of music development throughout this age range is similar. Adults, regardless of their own musical ability, find it fun and easy to help create an environment that supports any child in achieving basic music competence. Children participate at their own level in classes of mixed ages by singing, moving, chanting, listening, and exploring musical instruments.

This class for 3 to 5 year olds has musical experiences geared toward older children who are unable to come to morning classes. (Any Mixed Ages class is also appropriate for 3 to 4 year olds.)
