Through guided activities and free instrumental play, your child starts to learn about the building blocks of music- rhythm, pitch, tempo and dynamics! Action songs build an awareness of patterns and sequences. Movement games allow children to develop their listening skills and respond to the pitch, dynamic or tempo that they hear. Rhymes build skills in rhythm and pulse. Instrumental play allows little ones to become familiar with different ways of making music, and developing their motor skills and hand eye coordination.
