Early Childhood Music Program

Research continues to show the importance of early training in the arts, especially music. CSA offers a multiple arts curriculum for young children. Children from 18 months through 4 years can participate in sequential, interactive music classes. Early childhood classes meet once a week.

The program includes:

• Music for the Young (18 months - 3 years, with parent)
• Music Time (ages 3-4)

Music for the Young
Designed for ages 18 months through 3 years old, with parent, objectives include the development of vocal and rhythmic skills through movement activities, playing instruments and singing tonal fragments. Some musical experiences include gathering songs, vocal exploration, finger plays, and playing basic percussion instruments. The roles of the teacher, parents and children are equally important. Meets for 12 Saturdays. Schedule #AE 1012

Music Time
This 45-minute class is designed for children without parental participation in order to encourage children to become more independent music makers. The class is based on the musical foundations of listening, singing, moving, crating and playing instruments. Musical experiences include vocal exploration, circle games, expressive movement, rhythmic speech and instrument play. Meets for 12 Saturdays. Schedule #AE 1032
