Kindermusik Family Time is a class designed for families with one or more children ages newborn and up, who want to participate in an activity together. You’ll play instruments, dance, explore and make discoveries, share and take turns, and see how music can bring you closer as a family.
With older children ready to show the little ones how it’s done and the younger ones eager to learn, Family Time becomes a multi-layered learning environment for learning musical concepts and developing musical skills. In this special place, your children will strengthen their ties with each other and with you.
- Here, There, Everywhere
- In this family-sized version of Kindermusik, the music and activities center around five different family outings: a visit with a friend, an outing at the park, a trip to the city, an afternoon at the aquarium, and a day on the farm. Meeting with friends provides a great introduction to the rich tradition of making music with others. During our trip to the city, we’ll play a moving and stopping game, which develops a skill called “inhibitory control,” or the ability to stop oneself and wait. While at the farm, we’ll sing B-I-N-G-O, to practice audiation - the process of mentally hearing and comprehending music, even when no physical sound is present. You’ll soon discover that even the littlest ones can do this! Come joins us as we sing, dance, laugh, learn and make music together as a family!
- At Home Materials:
-
- 2 CD’s packed with songs from class so you can recreate your own Family Time musical learning activities anywhere.
- 2 books that we read together in class, so your children can repeat and build on at home what’s being explored and learned in class.
- 2 instruments that are safe enough for the baby in your house and sound enough for your emerging musician.
- A Family Activity Book full of activities the whole family can do together, plus song lyrics and educational information about the ways your child learns best.
- 2 puppets to develop expressive story telling skills, as well as hand and finger strength.
