Can you make a sound like an elephant?  Or hop up and down like a bunny?  Kindermusik Our Time encourages your child to uncover an engaging musical world while building confidence, self-control and communication skills.  Just as a young kangaroo bounds away and then back to the security of its mother’s pouch, Our Time classes are designed to encourage young children to try new activities independently while at the same time they can be confident that the security of their special adult’s lap is still nearby.  Singing, imitating sounds, rhyming and object exploration help foster language skills.  Creative to various musical “moods” develops a sense of balance, timing and spatial awareness.  And listening and turn-taking activities encourage blossoming social skills.

 

Our Time classes are 45-minute classes once a week, designed for children to participate with a parent, grandparent, or other adult caregiver.   This winter’s unit is Fiddle Dee Dee.  

 

We'll meet many animal characters this semester in our books, activities, and songs—horses, pigs, cows, mice, Rover Dog, Baby Cat, and Mama Duck and her ducklings. With silly, bumpy lap bounces we'll help your child develop rhythm while further developing his ever-emerging language skills. Music this semester emphasizes string instruments, and you can bring home the violin, cello, and orchestra sounds to help your toddler stay a happy and engaged learner at home, too.
