Our
Family Time
evening classes are popular with our working parents, as well as parents
with multiple children who want to make music a family affair. We
took
favorite Kindermusik songs and activities like “Shake, Shake the Apple
Tree” and “hammocking” and rolled them into a fun, family class where
each child is welcomed and valued and family “together time” is
celebrated and cherished.

What you’ll experience in class:
-
Singing.
From the first “Hello” song to the last “Goodbye,” exploring a variety
of musical styles and genres leads children to find their own voice.
Plus singing helps with memory and recall, physical development,
creativity, and socialization.
-
Assorted Movement.
Whether moving as a family, as a class, or as individuals, Family Time
movement activities enhance coordination skills, create opportunities
for imitation and exploration, and give everyone something to smile,
rock, bounce, or dance about.
-
Story Time.
Reading aloud to children stimulates their curiosity, expands their
knowledge, and broadens their understanding of language.
-
Family Jam
Children (and adults) will love selecting a unique instrument and
joining in one big class jam session each week.
-
Musical Concepts.
Fun engaging activities bring out the musicality in everyone, from the
youngest member of the family to the oldest. Together you’ll learn
more about music as you learn more about each other.
-
Expert advice.
A Kindermusik educator explains how our musically based activities
enhance your child’s complete development.
-
Learning continues at
home. With the home materials, the learning continues at home with your
child’s best teacher—you!
Enrollment includes:
-
15 week semester
-
Weekly 45-minute class
-
Set of At Home Materials including a Family Activity Guide, Hand and
Finger Puppet, Two CDs of music from class, two instruments, two

For Spring 2010 the curriculum is:
"Our
Kind of Day"
Build
family bonds, creativity, physical and mental development in a
delightful one-room schoolhouse. Each week children will
listen to instruments and to each other, learn from their peers and
older children, and enjoy music and movement with hoops, scarves,
and tumble-around play. Story time and family jams, puppet
play and happy singing—every Family Time activity
encourages discovery and exploration and fosters sharing and social
skills too.

For Fall 2009 the curriculum is:
"Make Way for Music"
Families
will sing, dance, and move their way through an exploration of
several elements of music: beat and rhythm, concepts and contrasts
(such as staccato and legato, high and low, the major scale, and
arpeggios), the human voice, instrument families, and ensemble.
They’ll engage in developmentally appropriate activities that the
whole family can enjoy together, including fingerplays, songs,
circle dances, story time, and family jam. |

For Fall 2010 the curriculum is:
|
"Here There Ever ywhere!"
The five
sub-themes center around different family outings: a visit with a
friend, an outing at the park, a trip to the city, an afternoon at
the aquarium, and a day on the farm. Move like animals with this
unit’s story Flip-Flap, Sugar Snap! And follow a girl’s
adventure as she loses her jambourine during the day’s outings and
then finds it in the story Jingle-Jangle Jambourine. |
For Spring 2010 the curriculum is:
"Movin' & Groovin"
A
romping, rolling, stretching good time for the whole family. This
unit of Family Time will explore lots of different ways to
move—high and low, fast and slow, zigzag, curvy, and more. Family
members will chug around the classroom like trains, clip-clop like
horses, and roll over like puppy dogs. They’ll hear a story about
playing tag together in Can You Catch Me?, and read about a
jungle hokey-pokey in Put Your Left Paw In. Show your best
groovin’ moves—it’s time for Movin’ & Groovin’. |
