Mixed Ages
This is the essential Music Together class, one that a child can attend from birth through age five, and through all nine song collections. This basic class follows the recommendations of child development researchers, grouping children of a variety of ages in one class. This approach fosters natural, family-style learning where younger children enjoy watching and imitating older ones; older children learn by leading younger ones; and adults are happy because the children in the family can go to class together.
Each child participates at his or her own developmental level in singing, moving, chanting, listening, observing, or exploring musical instruments. We welcome the whole family to join in this important family music experience and any caregiver, parents, grandparents, nanny, can bring the child(ren) to class.
Each semester includes:10 weekly 45-minute classes teaching a new song collection every fall, winter and spring and our 6-week summer session.
New CD's each semester with the songs, rhythm chantes, "play-alongs", tonal and rhythm patterns used in class.
Beautifully illustrated songbook with family activities to enjoy at home.
Celebrate the season with our 3-week Holiday and Music Together Favorites mini session. Get in the holiday spirit by singing festive songs and moving to the beat with your child! Jingle all the way to your weekly class that features a mix of Music Together favorites and joyous songs from around the world. Each family will receive the “Berry Collection” of Music Together hits. Mixed-Age music class, for children from birth through age 5—and the grownups who love them! Classes are active music-making experiences, designed to teach the way children learn: through play with the grownups they love. Gathering babies, toddlers, and preschoolers together makes each class fun for all. There are lots of group activities for kids out there, but Music Together offers a true family music class for the youngest infant to the oldest great-grandparent, and everyone in between. Imagine an extended family with a dozen or more kids and a bunch of caring adults, and you'll get the idea! Siblings over 5 years and under 6 months can participate for free with a paid sibling at all locations except the EPD.
