Mixed-age Classes: All of our classes are mixed-age, family style classes for children ranging in age from birth through age five. Every class has some babies, some toddlers, and some preschoolers, along with caregivers. Additional adult relatives (i.e. grandma, grandpa) are always encouraged to join us as well. Younger children enjoy watching and imitating older ones, older children delight in watching their younger counterparts, and adults can bring different age siblings to class together. Each child participates at his or her own level in singing, moving, chanting, listening, watching, and exploring musical instruments. Even our newborn music makers produce tones, shake their hands, tap their toes, wiggle, and absorb what others around them are singing and playing. The emphasis is upon creating a fun, informal, intergenerational musical experience powered by the caregiver/child dyad. Our mixed-age class follows the recommendations of early childhood development researchers who have found that grouping mixed-age children together fosters natural, family-style learning.

Our classes are organized into seasonal semesters, and each school-year (i.e. Fall, Winter, Spring) semester is based upon one of nine Music Together^® song collections. For Winter 2012, we are excited to bring you Bells Collection. Every Music Together song collection provides a richly varied musical experience, including traditional American folk songs, world-music (i.e. multi-cultural) folk songs, and original Music-Together© songs. The collections are non-sequential, so a new family can begin their Music Together experience at any time, i.e. using whichever collection corresponds to the current semester. We hope you'll ultimately get to experience all of our song collections.

Fall registration is now open! Please register as early as possible (click here to register), as class size is limited and popular time slots can fill quickly. If possible, please choose first and second choice classes. Waiting lists for filled classes will be created in order of requests received.

Once your class registration is confirmed, please take note of your class choice's particular start and the end date. All calendar questions can be directed to Cheryl via email or phone.

Families are encouraged to make-up missed classes by making arrangements with the director via email or phone, based on space availability. Missed classes are not able to be redeemed for monetary value. Make-up classes must be arranged for the current semester, barring unusual circumstances, or, if need be, they can be rolled forward to the next session a family is otherwise enrolled in.


Please note: We will confirm receipt of your registration as soon as we can (usually within 48 hours), but we can only guarantee your place in a class when your payment is received.
