Family Music Time

Group Classes for Children 0-5 years old with an Adult

‘Family’ unit = 1 adult with 1-3 children

Keep the instruments!? Yes please!! Families have the option to purchase materials kits (valued at $30 each) containing durable, age-appropriate instruments and props in a handy bag to keep and bring to each class!

This is a hands-on entertaining half-hour of LIVE music activities for pre-school aged children, held mid-morning in a climate-controlled rental space within St. Andrew Episcopal Church. Music activities will bring us together as a shared experience in-person, with playfulness and flexibility for each child to participate at their comfort level! This group is led by a board-certified music therapist to facilitate musical peer to peer interactions for the children and adults; foster a welcoming group for creating new in-person connections as families; and provide ideas and examples of musical activities to continue at home with the option of purchasing a materials kit to keep! No prior music experience is necessary. Instruments and props will be provided for use at each class, and it is an option to purchase a kit of these items ($25) to keep and use in all classes you attend. The materials kit includes at least 5 instruments and props total in a handy bag. Class sizes may be limited due to space. ‘Family’ unit = 1 adult caregiver with up to 3 children. Online registration allows you to choose which dates your family will attend, and accepts credit card payments.
