Kindermusik is a gently structured, flexible curriculum that allows your child to learn and develop at his own pace. It is not a "toddler prep school" that pushes young children to learn. The goal of Kindermusik isn't necessarily to make your child a musician, but to make him more eager to learn, more awake and wholly alive in the world. A rich assortment of musical activities is designed to  promote language development, symbolic thinking, coordination, and social interactions, while cultivating your child's imagination. Kindermusik provides a four-stage curriculum carefully designed to reflect and match your child's age and developmental level. There are no prerequisites - each stage provides unique learning opportunities.  Since the emphasis in Kindermusik is on your child's development and not on music instruction, there is no better method for introducing your child to music.

Eight units, each eight-weeks long.

Can you sound like an elephant? Or hop like a bunny? Our Time encourages your child to uncover an engaging musical world while building confidence, self-control and communications skills. Singing, imitating sounds, rhyming and object identification foster language skills. Creative movement to various musical “moods” develops a sense of balance, timing and spatial awareness. Listening and turn-taking encourage blossoming social skills.

Kindermusik Our Time is designed for children 1½ years to 3 years of age. Along with an accompanying parent or caregiver, children meet weekly for a 45-minute class and enjoy singing, moving, listening and interacting socially, and playing simple instruments. Exploration Time encourages a child's discovery of specially designed instruments, textures, sounds and movements; language skills are fostered with singing, sound imitation, and vocal play; Music & Movement Story Time encourages emergent literacy skills; and creative dancing affirms a child's urge to move.
