Village:
"Hickory, Dickory, Tickle and Bounce" and "The Rhythm of My Day"
Newborns to 18 month olds with adult caregivers
Seventeen 45-minute classes (Sixteen classes on Saturdays)
Research shows the more you expose your baby to nursery rhymes and songs, the stronger his emerging language-learning skills will be. That's why these Mother Goose-like stories and rhymes are the main theme of “Hickory, Dickory, Tickle and Bounce.” You'll develop research-proven communication strategies with your child through listening activities, speaking "parentese," and sign language. “The Rhythm of My Day” will help you bring more rhythm and routine to your baby's day, as well as help her develop lasting learning skills. We'll show you how and tell you why music can help your little one soothe herself and helps to build a strong network for learning in her body and mind. With your home materials, you can bring home those same stress-free play and relaxation techniques from class and incorporate them into your daily routines. Materials include two CDs, two board books, four art banners, and two instruments.
Total Price: $282.50 (includes $70.00 for materials)--$270.00 on Saturdays
Sibling Total Price (in same class): $174.00 (includes $38.00 for materials)--$166.00 on Saturdays

We'll meet many animal characters in our books, activities, and songs—each specifically chosen for a child's emerging interests and physical skills. With silly, bumpy lap bounces we'll help your child develop rhythm while further developing his ever-emerging language skills. With a special stringed-emphasis in the music from class, you can bring home the violin, cello, and orchestra sounds to help your child stay a happy and engaged learner at home, too.

Imagine That:
”Cities! Busy Places~Friendly Faces” 3 1/2 to 5 year olds
Sixteen 45-minute classes (Fifteen classes on Saturdays)
Adult caregivers attend last 15 minutes
In this unit, sidewalks, elevators, skyscrapers, and world-traveling photographers are the theme in this unique preschool Kindermusik program. Learning through the pretend play that your preschooler adores, we'll be rhythmically busy playing storytelling games and handcrafting city "buildings" at home so we can make a cityscape in class! Plus every activity has some at-home adaptations so you can take part in the learning. With a pair of resonator bars as a featured instrument, and a multi-cultural, jazzy collection of music, your preschooler will develop the social and intellectual skills he'll need in school. Home materials include 2 CDs, 2 books, a family activity book, a gameboard set, a backpack (for new students), and two resonator bars with mallets.
Total Price: $276.00 (includes $60.00 for materials) ($6.00 less for returning students with backpacks)--$262.50 on Saturdays
