Mixed Age (0-5 years)

About the Program

 

Family-style educational experiences are where it’s AT in early childhood! We know that learning in a mixed-age environment caters to all styles of learning, and all levels of development. 
 
The “big” kids love their opportunity to be leaders in the classroom (passing out instruments, giving movement ideas, helping the babies), and the “little” kids just soak up all they’re being shown!
 
We also know that children learn at their own pace and on their own trajectory. When we have many ages all in one space, it’s much easier to just let them be, without focusing on unnecessary comparisons—there are so many developmental levels in our classes, you just CAN’T compare them—and really, there is no need!
 
So sit back, trust the process, and enjoy the ride. Singing and learning together, with children of all ages, is such a joy. ��
 

This is the essential Music Together® class, one that a child can attend from birth through age five - and through all nine song collections. Child development researchers recommend mixed-age groupings because they foster natural, family-style learning. Younger children enjoy watching and imitating older ones; older children learn by leading younger ones; and adults are happy because the children in the family can go to class together. Each child participates at his or her own level in singing, moving, chanting, listening, watching, and exploring musical instruments. The class provides a variety of adult-child activities that are fun and offer new ways to play musically at home. Parents, grandparents, or nanny, individually or together, may accompany the children. The whole family is welcome for this important family music experience
