(For Newborn to 18 months)

Kindermusik, the world's most respected name in music
education, features one of the only music classes specially
designed for our littlest music-makers! Rhythmic stories,
fun songs, soothing lullabies, developmentally-appropriate
instruments, rousing group dances, and relaxing massage
exercises allow you to give your baby the best possible
start in life. Materials are fully-integrated with the
curriculae and include CDs, books, posters, and more.

This S
pring, come hop on the hayride—it’s time to head
for the farm! In the first session of Village,
Cock-a-
doodle-MOO!
,you and your baby will sing songs about
the farm, including “Old MacDonald,” “Hayride,” and
“Clever Cows.” We’ll engage in rituals and playful
activities for baby and caregiver, including infant
massage, lap bounces, exercise, and quiet time. During
the week, you will enjoy your At Home Materials,
looking through a playful picturebook of animals and the
sounds they make, as well as a CD of the songs heard in
class and an instrument for music-making at home.

Then, stop and smell the roses, lily of the valley, tulips,
and pansies! In our Spring unit,
Dewdrops, play and
move together with your baby to songs about flowers,
such as “Jasmine Flower,” “How Does Your Garden
Grow?,” and “White Coral Bells.” You’ll also hear
traditional Irish music as you and your baby dance a jig,
move to the “Irish Trot,” and exercise to “Did You Ever
See a Lassie.” In your At Home Materials, you will
receive a CD of beautifully arranged songs from class, a
board book of flowers, and an instrument for music-
making at home.

Come join us to sing and play the day away!

"I have a Ph.D. in education, and I knew of the positive effects
of music on the cognitive development of babies. When I was
pregnant with my son, I read a book called
Baby Teacher:
Nurturing Neural Networks from Birth to Age Five
.  The book
indeed praises the benefits of different kinds of music on
baby's brain development. So, having my baby in a music
class was something I wanted him to experience...

"I looked into other music programs, but both programs
seemed to me either too commercialized...or not specifically
appropriate for my son's age group... The more I learned
about Kindermusik both as a company and as a music
program, the more I liked it.  Then the best was actually
attending the class and getting to know your way of teaching!"

- Carmina Brittain,
Village parent


"Because of the day and time of the class, I had to pick between
this class and a mother-baby support group.  I am so glad I
picked
Village because I feel I have gotten more out of it
than I would have from the support group.  The class
has given us a starting off point to exploring music
that will last a lifetime... I am glad I signed us up when I did!"

"The Village Class is a fabulous class for newborns to 16
months.  Even though your child cannot sing the class will help
your child build a good foundation in music.  Music is
everywhere - at the stores, in your car, on hold on the phone,
and in your house.  You may think that your child will not
benefit from music classes, but they will!  They will learn to listen
and to play with rhythms and songs.  They will get to interact
with other babies and you will learn different fun 'routines
and dances' to go with your home CD to make home playtime
memorable.  Music is such a good foundation for babies to
start their lifelong learning process, and it's enjoyable for the
parents and babies."
