We are offering Drop-in classes this summer on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 9 and 10 starting on July 7 and continuing through August 13. You do not need to register, you can just show up. The cost is $12 for a family with one child and $15 for multiple children. Please join us at the Music Together® studio at 374 US Route One in Yarmouth. For questions, call 846-1154.
Our fall schedule, beginning September 21 will be up on the computer by mid July to begin registration.
BEFORE REGISTERING, PLEASE CALL (207)846-1154 TO CHECK AVAILABILITY AS MANY OF THE CLASSES ARE FULL
Ten weekly, 45-minute classes include songs, rhythmic rhymes, movement, and instrument play. These activities are presented as informal, non-performance-oriented musical experiences--developmentally appropriate for children and easy for parents and caregivers--regardless of their own musical ability. 2 CDs, and Songbook are included!
CLASS OFFERINGS:
MIXED AGES CLASS: This is the essential Music Together class, one that a child can attend from birth through age five- and through all nine song collections. Leading psychologists endorse mixed-age groupings because they foster natural, family-style learning. The younger children learn by observing and imitating the older ones; the older children benefit from singing to, moving with and being appreciated by the 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 musical experience.
BABIES CLASS: Every child's music development benefits from early exposure to music and movement. Because the early months are so important, Music Together offers two options for babies. Infants eight months or younger at the time of registration may attend a mixed-age class, whether registered on their own or attending free with an older sibling. They may also be registered for the special "Babies Class" offered as a one-semester introduction to Music Together. The musical activities and materials are specially designed for parents who want to learn as much as possible about musical development in infants. Meet other parents of newborns and learn fascinating musical activities you can create at home with your baby.
CHILDREN WITH AUTISM/SPECIAL NEEDS: Although all children are welcome in a mixed ages class, some parents prefer a more specialized class for their children with special needs. Activities are the same as mixed age classes with each child participating from their own stage of development. Siblings are always welcome.
INTERGENERATIONAL CLASS: We know that children of all ages benefit from our family-style atmosphere. We are thrilled to be bringing our classes to local assisted living centers where children and their families will experience Music Together classes with the 'mature' population of our community . Elderly participants will observe and join in just as your children do. We look forward to witnessing the wonderful benefits afforded to those who join these very special classes.
