"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 Rhythm of My Day book.
In fact, she demands to read The Rhythm of My Day book
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 Carolyn. Thanks for the class and the emails!"
