The essential Music Together®® Mixed Ages class is one that a child can attend from birth through age five through all nine song collections. This basic class follows the recommendations of child development researchers— grouping children of a variety of ages because this fosters natural, family-style learning. 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 level in singing, moving, chanting, listening, watching, or exploring musical instruments. Any caregivers—parents, grandparents, nanny—can bring the children. The whole family is welcome for this important family music experience.
Fall, Winter & Spring semesters include:
- ten weekly, 45-minute classes
-songs, rhythmic chants & rhymes,
-small & large movement, and
-varied instrument play
Summer semester includes everything above, but runs a shorter 6 week session to fit around your Summer Fun.
Song activities are presented as informal, non-performance-oriented musical experiences--developmentally appropriate for children--and easy for grownups, regardless of their own musical ability. A songbook and downloadable are included!
