A Bonding Experience The Kindermusik Village class provides a delightful environment unlike any other. Through a unique blend of multi-level activities that include creative movement, vocal play, object and instrument exploration, and a colorful literature component, baby's growth and development are stimulated and all senses engaged.
Kindermusik Village is for lap babies, crawlers, and walkers. It incorporates the most current research on early childhood development and provides families a special place for learning and connecting with other parents and babies through music and movement. |
- Variety of Music Musical diversity builds strong neural in a baby's forming mind, which is why each Kindermusik semester contains an array of styles, sounds, and genres.
- Instrument Play. Age-appropriate experiences with child-safe instruments enhance a sense of rhythm and steady beat, develops a keen awareness of the distinguishing qualities of sound, and encourages spontaneity and creativity.

create special memories with their child,
gain new insights into their child's
development, and nurture their child's natural
love of music.
