FAMILY MUSIC CLASSES
INFANT TO PRE-K AGE CHILDREN & CAREGIVERS
registration is open!
Family Music Class presented by Blue House Music and Art Camp 504 is an immersive music experience for infant, toddler and Pre-K age children along with their caregivers.
Through singing, movement and instrument play children will experience rich learning in key developmental domains while caregivers gain powerful tools to communicate with their little ones.
INFANT & TODDLER: Class focuses on early language development, especially phonemic sound, and gross motor development from crawling and first steps to finger-walking and motoring around. The class teaches eye tracking, attention, and connection with the caregiver.
TODDLER & PRE-K: Classes emphasize imaginative play and emerging language from letter sounds to words and phrases. We explore gross motor development through movement and fine motor development through fingerplay, and we develop musical thinking through instrument play, starting and stopping and recognizing patterns.
