Class Descriptions

Mixed Age Class

Children aged birth to five and their caregiver (and siblings too) can participate in this enriching mixed age setting.  This class is the hallmark of the Music Together® program, nurturing a family style learning environment. The youngest learn from observing the older children, the older children learn from teaching and demonstrating to the little ones, and the parents enjoy the ease of having both ages together in one setting. Each child is free to learn and participate at their own pace on many different levels such as observing, moving, tapping, singing, chanting, exploring etc.

Babies

The Music Together Babies class, for families with infants from birth through eight months, is a one-semester introduction to Music Together and to early childhood music development. After this one semester, the family enrolls in a mixed-age class. The music activities in a Babies class are specifically designed to teach parents how to support music development in infancy and how to connect with their infants through music, using concepts like “purposeful touch,” “sound layering,” and “dancing for baby.” Babies classes use the same collection as mixed-age and Big Kids classes, enabling a seamless transition for families and teachers between class programs.
