Kindermusik with Jenny: find great music!

find great music!

As a former elementary music teacher, if a children's CD annoys me, it has to be bad! That being said, during my son's first year I combed through children's music that I could tolerate listening to at home and didn't find much. THEN, we found Kindermusik. Our first unit was the summer Village class, "Peek-a-boo I Love You." As I listened to the CD for the first time, I was impressed with the high quality recordings and the variety of music (great cultural music, some classical, some folk, plus all the childhood favorites). Since then, our CD player almost always has a Kindermusik CD in it. I have yet to be disappointed. It is truly the best children's music out there. If you'd like to download some tunes to listen to at home, try the Kindermusik music download site: http://play.kindermusik.com/en/. You will love it. I promise.

Village
For ages 0-2 years
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. Parent participation is expected.

Wiggle & Grow
For 2 and 3 year olds
This music-filled class celebrates the unique joys of your growing child. Each week your child will love singing, dancing, and playing instruments with you and her new friends and you’ll love helping her practice a wide variety of abilities such as gross and fine motor skills, turn-taking, social skills, and active listening. In class, we’ll also share tips and ideas for using music throughout the week. Plus, the fun (and learning!) continue with the Kindermusik@Home digital home materials, including music from class, musical activities, and each month’s story. Parent participation is expected.

Laugh & Learn
For 3 and 4 year olds
Each week in class we combine your preschooler’s natural love of music, storytelling, and imaginative play with age-appropriate activities that introduce early music concepts and foster independence, social and emotional skills, language growth, and self-control. We also connect you with other parents who share in the wonder of parenting a preschooler. Parents join class for the final activities. The Kindermusik@Home digital home materials bring the music, activities, and each month’s story everywhere you go. The repetition enhances the learning—and the fun! Partial parent participation is expected.

Move & Groove
For 4-6 years old
From the moment you became a parent, you wanted the best for your child. In class, we engage your child in music and movement activities that also promote language, social and emotional skills, early math and early literacy, physical coordination, creativity, and more. Plus, your child will learn basic music vocabulary and notation—all setting the stage for future school success and formal music lessons. Parents join the fun for the final activities. The Kindermusik@Home digital home materials extend the benefits all week long with music from class, activities for the whole family, and each month’s story. Partial parent participation is expected.

Family Time

For children (and parents) of all ages
Family Time brings adults and children of all ages together, providing a dynamic and integrated musical learning experience for everyone. Parent participation is expected.
