Classes» Our Time details

“Our Time” helps your toddler blossom and
grow right before your eyes!

Age range: 18 months to 3 years
Class length: 45 minutes

For your toddler, every day brings new discoveries and opportunities to explore the
world around him. Despite their growing independence, toddlers still long for the
safety and security of parental closeness. During this time, she relishes the comfort of
familiar things while seeking new challenges.

Kindermusik Our Time encourages her to be creative, to initiate her own ideas and to
respond in her own ways, while your active participation gives her the security she
needs. As you play instruments, sing, move, and explore, you’ll uncover an engaging
musical world while building your child’s confidence, self-control, and
communications skills.


WHAT YOU'LL EXPERIENCE IN CLASS
• Instrument exploration and ensemble skill development. Your child will explore the
physical characteristics and sounds of age-appropriate instruments which will
eventually lead her to discover her potential for beat, rhythm, and melodic ensemble
playing.

• Vocal play. Through vocal play, toddlers learn to form vowels and consonants, say
words and phrases, and imitate rhythm and vocal inflection. In Kindermusik Our Time,
vocal play is presented within the context of songs, chants, and activities done in class.

• Exploration Time. Your child will love discovering specially designed instruments,
textures, sounds and movements.

• Story time and early literacy. Listening to stories enhances language and speech
development and fosters awareness of sounds, teaches use of language, and sends
the message that words and symbols have meaning. The same experiences that help
your child learn to read a book also help her learn to read music.

• Movement Activities. Each class provides various opportunities for movement such
as synchronized movement, group dances and circle games, and even expressive
movement.

• Together Time. Kindermusik is the essence of quality time, allowing you to make the
most of the fleeting toddler years and giving you the time and the tools to make music
and memories together in class and at home.

• Expert advice. A Kindermusik educator explains how our musically based activities
enhance your child’s complete development.
