CLASS DESCRIPTION
Our mixed-age classes are perfect for families who wish to bring two or more children of different ages to the same class, or for parents who simply prefer a mixed-age setting for their child. These classes allow infants through seven-year-olds—and their caregivers—to gather together for a fun-filled learning experience. Your Kindermusik educator will help you modify movement activities, group dances, and instrument-play activities for each of your children.

WHAT PARENTS SAY
I have seen first hand the rich benefits of Kindermusik. Naturally my children gained social and listening skills. However, the biggest reward was seeing them confidently and skillfully transition into piano lessons after completing the program. Kindermusik is so much fun and it is chock-full of foundational concepts that will serve as your child's musical launch pad! I highly recommend!

We absolutely love kindermusik! We are going on 3 years and my son is still just as excited about it as he was in the beginning. I love that it is very active and so much fun that my son doesn't even realize he's learning. It's great having learning activities and songs for us to do at home together as well. My son's favorite books have been his Kindermusik books!
