Music & Movement Toddler Classes

art-115-m&mLooking for something fun to do with your toddler? Children and their parents will enjoy these creative class times filled with music, movement and plenty of smiles.

Movement and Music classes are a great environment for children and their adults to bond through creative expression. Classes typically include use of fun props and musical instruments, and time is structured around exciting, imaginative themes. All the while children learn music concepts in an easy-going way. The movement component helps develop small and large motor skills as well as spatial and body awareness. Shared experiences with new friends help children develop socially as they play … and give parents a chance to enjoy each other’s company too! 

We’re confident these will be memorable experiences that nurture creativity and develop self-expression and confidence.  Here are some classes offered in the North State region:
