Adventures for Babies:
For Babies ages newborn to 20 months, we will be offering "Busy Days" and "Peek A Boo, I Love You!". With a little more "Bach" in your Twinkle Twinkle repertoire, you'll love how each lesson features fun activities and songs you can enjoy in all the places you go and the things you do together. Be inspired as you discover new ways music can help your busy days with your child be easier, happier days! In "Peek A Boo, I Love You!", more than just a curious story, Mother Goose games like peek-a-boo help babies understand language. In this special class, uncover more ways to say "I love you" using American Sign Language, soap bubbles, and parent-baby dances. Plus, parents can meet with other newborns and families in the community and learn how music improves the child development process. For ages newborn - 20 months.
Adventures for Toddlers:
Explore creatures all summer long, with "Creatures at the Ocean" and then "Creatures in my Backyard". In "Creatures at the Ocean", sing sailor songs and make the ocean count. "Five little seashells lying on the shore: Swish! Went the waves and then there were four." In "Creatures in My Backyard", give your children something to sing about in their own backyards. Be the flower from the "seed's" perspective. Run and jump in rain puddles made from hula hoops. Shoo real flies and sing "Shoo Fly." For ages 1.5-3.5 and their parents.
Adventures for Pre-Schoolers:
In "On the Road", you will re-live your childhood, with your child. Every song is likely to revive a memory from your summers? past. Play ?Eye Spy? and find shapes in the clouds to pass the time. Take imaginary trips in a bus named ?Van Go? to fun-filled vacation destinations such as the carnival, a summer cottage, and the beach. In "Confetti Days", throw a new party every day. Ride a carousel inside the classroom. Play a balancing game and walk on the web of ropes. Do a musical move and freeze. Learn colors and sing the Spanish song "De Colures," "Pop, Goes the Weasel," and "Looby Loo." For ages 3-5 and their parents.
Adventures for Big Children:
Our theme is called "Tell Me A Tale". Through storytelling, your children will develop an early awareness of rhythm, movement, singing, and drama. Each lesson features a new tale from around the world, explored through multi-instrument and multi-cultural elements. All told, it?s an around-the-imagination adventure of the greatest stories from Europe, Malaysia, South Africa, and more. For ages 5-7.
Adventures for Families:
Experience the joy of the One-Room Schoolhouse approach as "Here, There and Everywhere" invites ALL the members of a family to come enjoy a musical adventure together! This class is open to siblings of ages 0-7, all together. Pay only for the first child...all the siblings are FREE - that's right...FREE!! Can't beat that, can you?
Adventures for Sign Language:
We will be offering one 10-week session of Sign and Sing, Units A and B, for hearing babies, ages 6-36 months. Learn over 150 ASL signs to use with your baby to eliminate communication frustrations for both baby AND you! Not only will you learn in a fun, musical atmosphere, but you will also be taught how to interpret YOUR baby's version of the signs, how to engage your child to WANT to sign, and how to use music and props as "attention - getters" to GET your baby to sign! A wonderful opportunity for hearing babies ages 6-36 months.
