Bringing Out the Song in Every Child

Music and movement exercise and develop a young child's natural gifts. Our Little Hands Kindermusik program offers you and your child an opportunity to experience the joy and satisfaction of music making in a comfortable, safe, and fun environment.

When your child participates in our unique classes, you'll see development in language skills, literacy, listening, problem solving, social skills, and self-esteem. What's more, you'll see a love of music emerge that will have a lifelong influence on the way your child listens, thinks, expresses thoughts and navigates our complex and changing world with creativity and joy!

They'll outgrow new shoes and new toys, but they'll never outgrow the learning skills they get from a Kindermusik class.


Expert Thoughts on Kindermusik

"Kindermusik brings parents and children together for fun and education. The learning is active, engaging and developmentally appropriate. Children are exposed to diverse materials and are provided with rich opportunities for hands-on experiences with developmentally appropriate instruments. The joy is in the process of learning and the result is children who are more attuned in reaching their full potential." — Mary Sheedy Kurcinka, International family educator and author of Raising Your Spirited Child, Raising Your Spirited Child Workbook, and Power Struggles: Winning for a Lifetime

"Kindermusik is elegant in its integrated approach to a child's development. Physiologically, touch, movement, rhythm and sound are the keystones to developing a healthy vestibular system and optimizing nervous system and brain growth. The importance of having families working together, where everyone benefits from the sense of belonging, gets directly at the heart of what we, as a society, are needing at this time to raise healthy, loving children and ensure a world of peace. All of this is provided in the Kindermusik program." — Carla Hannaford, Ph.D. Biologist, educator and author of Smart Moves: Why Learning Is Not All in Your Head and The Dominance Factor
