Early Childhood Music Classes
The Music Rhapsody program, developed by internationally renowned music educator Lynn Kleiner, addresses each age and stage of childhood develpment. It meets your child exactly where he or she is. Beautiful, deverse songs, singable phrases, repetition with variety, the use of instruments, puppets, and visuals all foster the love of music in an exciting and creative environment. It is a program that, to its core, acknowledges and values the input and creativity of each and every child.
The Instrument Kits have earned acclaim from the Creative Child Magazine, Dove Foundation, National Parenting Center, Oppenheim Best Toy Awards, and the iParenting Media Awards, as well as endorsements from Kids First, REMO, and Alfred Publishing.
The classes run September through June. Join anytime.
