Program Descriptions
Echo and Explore
Little voices take center stage! Children delight in echoing songs, sounds and simple speech patterns, building listening and language skills while having fun.
Funky Soundscapes
Get ready to groove! Play, dance and imagine with funky beats, animal sounds and pretend instruments that turn silliness into sound-filled adventures.
Splish Splash Water Percussion
Make a splash in this playful sound lab! From rainy-day rhythms to water drips and splashes, toddlers experiment with the music of weather using water percussion. Bring extra clothes because children may get wet during class.
Bounce and Boogie
Wiggle, bounce and boogie! This high-energy module blends rhythm and movement with playful language games to get little bodies and minds moving.
