The Kids Music Underground was founded on the belief that children ought to be approached as equals. And that learning is more profound and longer-lasting if it's presented, or disguised, within a playful group dynamic. Never underestimate the power of Silly. Nor the sense of empowerment that comes from a child's personal involvement and connection (with their parent/caregiver) in the learning process. It's simply healthy to sing, dance, laugh, and play with your child, and other children and adults, on a regular basis. It feels good. That they are learning the basic fundamentals of a musical vocabulary - rhythm and melody, pitch and dynamics - as well as an active appreciation of different forms of music, is an added bonus. All classes are 45 minutes and they're FUN! Each class has 10-12 children, accompanied by a parent/caregiver. Activities include singalong, small and big action songs, freestyle movement and dancing, and percussion/instrument play. No need to be bashful - it's all about having fun and making music with your child, so if you're willing to really participate (and be silly), your child will benefit greatly. Please arrive 5-10 minutes before your scheduled class time, in order to get settled. It's important that your child be present for the 'Welcome' song, to hear his/her name and feel a sense of belonging. Two make-up classes per session are allowed. To register, fill out on-line registration form, including first and second choice of class time, print and sign, and mail it in with your payment. Families can email to reserve a spot in class - but your space is secured once your payment is received. Then you'll get an email confirming your child's class time. |
