Kindermusik Laugh and Learn



Level 3 classes engage preschoolers’ natural love of music and activate their imaginations. A wide range of learning opportunities boosts language skills, confidence, independence, social-emotional skills, and self-control. You are invited to join the fun for a portion of each class, sharing in the joy of music-making and learning how your child is developing, all while strengthening your relationship with your child.                                 Each week in class we combine your preschooler’s natural love of music, storytelling, and imaginative play with age-appropriate activities that introduce early music concepts and foster independence, social and emotional skills, language growth, and self-control.  We also connect you with other parents who share in the wonder of parenting a preschooler. Parents join class for the final activities.  The Kindermusik@Home digital home materials bring the music, activities, and each month’s story everywhere you go.  The repetition enhances the learning—and the fun!
