Music with Friends

I loved teaching The Music Class in New York, but when we moved I discovered that they weren’t great options for baby-preschool music classes available in our new area. I found one class that was impressive, but didn’t allow you to bring younger or older children. With a baby and toddler, that wasn’t possible for me. And it was expensive! Instead I started a casual group music class with a few friends. We started out taking turns hosting, singing our favorite songs, using simple instruments and letting the kids play. I realized that with a little guidance everyone could do this. I’ve gathered collections of my favorite songs along with simple tips for starting a weekly music class with your children and/or friends. The newest collection is all about the Farm and involves lots of creative and dramatic play.

Also take a look at Moving Our Bodies and the corresponding weekly plan. It’s a great collection of songs that involve movement and body parts.
