A one-room schoolhouse approach to music!  With older children ready to show the little ones how it's done, and the younger ones eager to learn, Family Time becomes a multi-layered learning environment.  Each week, a Young Years educator will introduce basic musical concepts and then give you the instruments, and the structured free time to put those concepts into play. 

Your children will listen to instruments and to each other, learn from their peers and older children, and enjoy music and movement with hoops, scarves and tumble-around play.  Story time and family jams, puppet play and happy singing -- all the Family Time activities encourage discovery and exploration and foster sharing and social skills too.  In this special place for musical social and emotional learning, your children will strengthen their ties with each other and with you -- and they'll start developing the skills they'll need in school and on the neighborhood playground.

Spring: Movin' and Groovin'

A romping, rolling, stretching good time for the whole family!  This unit will explore lots of different ways to move -- high and low, fast and slow, zigzag, curvy, and more.  Family members will chug around the classroom like trains, clip-clop like horses, and roll over like puppy dogs.  They'll hear a story about playing tag together in Can You Catch Me? and read about a jungle hokey-pokey in Put Your Left Paw In.
