Music Speaks is an early childhood music program that provides developmentally appropriate music for infants, toddlers, and pre-school children, ages 0 through 4 1/2 years old. The music program uses a mix of traditional and contemporary songs with a world beat bringing out the innate musical nature of young children. Parents interact with their children and live music in sessions aimed at expanding creativity, bonding, and the proven cognitive development gained by introducing children to music at a young age.

The 2013 Spring Session begins Monday April 1 - June 2. The FREE trial class is TODAY, March 21 at 10:30AM. The classes run for 45 minutes, and are designed to introduce musically driven activities such as chants, finger plays, and small and large movements using a variety of age appropriate musical instruments. The classes allow children and their parents/caregivers to explore, learn and discover the wonders and benefits of music!
