Is my child ready for this stage of Kindermusik?

The Kindermusik philosophy springs from genuine respect for each child's individual rate of development. Class activities and at-home materials are designed to honor, support and celebrate the uniqueness of each child. Classes have overlapping age ranges to help parents accommodate their child's own needs.

While a child should be at least the minimum age to enroll in any given class, the guidelines in the right column will help guide your decision about when to enroll her/him in the next stage.

15 week session: $255 (includes tuition and materials kit fee). Contact me to enroll or for your pro-rated total if you join after the semester begins.

Both Sides of Their Brains

"When children and adults participate in Kindermusik classes, they are developing both sides of their brains through structured and creative music and movement activities. Television, video games and computers have helped to produce a generation that struggles with learning problems, hyperactivity and obesity. Many of these problems can be helped through systematic music/movement exercises and patterns."
