Now in Week 3 of new classes, the semester is off and running! I left my Village class this morning (babies - 18 months), my heart just leaping with joy for what I get to share with families week in and week out! We have seven in the class - the youngest about 7 months and the oldest 18 months. It is a beautiful blend of parents and children; wonderfully happy and contented children with moms and dads eager to learn about their child's development and the great role music can play in that. To give you an idea of the vast experience one can have in a typical class, within our 45-minute session today we played drums, we practiced massage. We incorporated sign language, we skipped. We had a jam session to a kickin' Putamayo song "Sheep" (our semester is entitled Cock-a-Doodle-MOO, by the way), we learned about the corpus callosum. Where else could you find such diversity and information? Extreme fun and important facts? Kindermusik and their research earns a gold star every time... If you're going to spend money on your child, why not spend it on a program that will truly make a difference??? Today was proof - it is SO worth every penny!
Making music matter,
jg
