Music Together by the Dunes
9:30 & 10:30am
The Joy of Family Music – Join us in this popular Early childhood Music and Movement program for children newborn through age 5 and their Parents or Caregivers. Singing, dancing, rhythmic chants, instrument play and movement are explored in a fun, educational environment. Songbook, CD’s, newsletters and parent guide w/DVD are included with tuition.
Music Together is a research based program that taps into the child’s innate musical ability, leading them through primary music development to basic music competence. Basic music competence is having the ability to sing a song in tune and keep a steady beat.
In a non-competitive, non-performance environment, caregivers, regardless of music ability, nurture the child through 45 minutes of music play. The classes encourage the child’s natural enthusiasm, giving them a positive attitude toward music and movement which creates a solid foundation for future formal music and dance training.
