Let's Create MUSIC Together!
Music is a language we all share. Listening to and playing music during early childhood has positive effects on learning, and is just plain fun! As with language development, young ears learn music naturally through simple exposure to songs and rhythms. During the first five years of childhood, brain development is rapid - this is the perfect time to expose your child to music! With regular exposure, music will become as second-nature to your child as walking and talking. Children audiate, hear music in their heads, long before music making begins. Repetition and movement encourage fine and gross motor development as they shake a tambourine, pick a guitar, or twirl in the air. Children laugh, dance, and play instruments along side their peers developing social interactions and friendships. Each class begins with circle time and an introduction to the theme of the day through song, dance, story, or observation! We are inspired by the Orff-Schulwerk approach to music education, which mirrors the big ideas of Reggio Emilia of exploration, discovery, and play. You and your child will enjoy a wide array of percussion instruments (xylophones, shakers, drums) as well as many international
(talking drum, seed rattle, rainstick) and traditional instruments (recorder, guitar, piano).
Our Let's Make MUSIC Together classes provide a fun environment to sing, dance, and create music with your child!

Observers!
Birth to 6 months (you may join any LCMT class, and pay 1/2 price!) As infants become more aware of their world and begin to interact and manipulate objects, they enter into the world of music making. Watch your baby's face light up as they realize they are controlling the sound coming from the xylophone or creating the rhythm from the pat, pat, pat of their hand on the drum. Your child will delight in familiar and original songs and instruments introduced throughout the session. Bounce, sway to the beat, and explore sounds as you bond with your baby!
7 week session $70 Caregiver must attend class with child. |

Musicians!
6 months to 3 years (1 hour class) Discover song, sounds, and instruments!
Sing along to fun original and familiar songs that teach vocabulary through age-appropriate topics (colors, shapes, parts of the body). Dance with your child as they move to the beat, shake a maraca, play a xylophone, or strum a guitar! Your child will love singing along to familiar and original songs that go beyond vocabulary acquisition, focusing on words of action, description, or story. Through hands on, open-ended activities your toddler will explore a variety of instruments while manipulating sounds and discovering possibilities! 7 week sessions. $140 Caregiver must attend class with child. |
