"Miss Lindsay sounds like a Disney Princess!"

Young Child parent

"I want to let you know how much Roxy and Grandma Carolyn are
enjoying and benefiting from Kindermusik. I can see Roxy
developing in many exciting ways. She LOVES the CD and the
book. In fact, she demands to read
The Rhythm of My Day about
15 times a day. She sways, twirls, bounces, and claps regularly
to music, and a new development is that she sings notes and waits
for us to mimic her, instead of us singing first and her matching
our pitch. She's taking the lead! I worked on minor thirds with her
last week and will dance with her to syncopated rhythms this week.
This has also been a bonding experience for Roxy and Grandma.
Thanks for the class and the emails!"
