Music Together® Program
For hundreds of thousands of families worldwide, Music Together is children and their grownups joyfully sharing songs, rhymes, movement, and instrument play, both in music class and in their daily lives. A pioneer in early childhood music and movement education, Music Together offers classes for children from birth through kindergarten, in which parents and caregivers actively participate.
All children are sounders and movers, and their natural aptitude for music blossoms in a sufficiently rich music environment. In fact, when given a supportive music environment, children learn to sing and danas naturally as they learn to walk and talk.
How is this possible? Children learn differently than adults. They learn instinctively and constantly. They teach themselves through imitation and play, through being immersed in their environment, and through every interaction with adults and older children.
Tot Music Drum Program is a drum class for children 4 to 6 years of age with adult (younger siblings welcome). Our 45 minute class will consist of rhythmic play and community drumming, with plenty of opportunity for singing and dancing, too! As with all our programs, music in class will draw from a variety of styles and cultures from around the world.
