ENROLLMENT OPTIONS
MUSIC TOGETHER MIXED AGES
Three ten-week semesters and one six-week summer semester of 45-minute classes for mixed ages include singing, chanting, moving, playing, creating, and responding to musical patterns. Playful activities are informal, non-performance oriented musical experiences -- developmentally appropriate for children and easy for parents and caregivers, regardless of their own musical ability. Classes encourage the absorption and exploration of a rich, musical vocabulary for infants, toddlers and preschoolers. Two professionally recorded CDs, Songbook and "Music and Your Child" parent guide are included.
Q & A - Music Classes
MUSIC TOGETHER INTERGENERATIONAL
These Music Together classes are similar to other Music Together classes except that they are held at an assisted living center and provide an opportunity for the senior residents and families to make music together. Senior residents of the center are invited sit in a large circle, "be a Grandma or Grandpa" and participate in the class activities in whatever way they can. Families sit on the floor and have opportunity to interact with the residents before, during, and after class. Experienced Music Together families are given priority to enroll in this class.

MUSIC TOGETHER PRESCHOOL PROGRAM
For Preschools who understand the value of music as an essential part of their program, Music Moves provides a Music Together specialist to teach weekly music and movement classes in cooperation with classroom teachers. Recordings, songbooks, and teaching materials are provided for the classroom. Children "bring the music home" for parent/child musical play, sharing the songs and activities learned in School. The joy of extended family music at home and in school creates a natural circle that enhances the school community. Call the director with questions or to schedule a visit.
