Del Rey Music Together®
Mixed Ages Classes
This is the essential Music Together class, one that a child can attend from birth through age five—and through all nine song collections.
Informal instruction where children may or may not participate as they choose, and do so according to their developmental level. This class is freely mixed ages from birth to age five where the activities focus on adult-child interaction rather than child-child. Many childhood educators consider mixed-age groupings beneficial, and the process of music development throughout this age range is similar.
Infants and Crawlers
Squeals and giggles mix with favorite songs. Parents learn how babies learn music. There is no previous experience required, just a love of music and a willingness to have fun. Meet other parents of newborns and learn some fascinating music activities you can recreate at home with your baby.
Music Together Preschool also offers classes designed for preschool settings:
Preschool
Weekly Music Together Preschool classes are 30-to-45 minutes long and include an artistically conceived flow of songs, nursery rhymes, instrumental jam sessions, fingerplays, and movement activities. The combination and types of activities are research-based and support children’s developing competence in tonality and rhythm. In addition, activities evolve from the child’s world and include vocal play, animal sounds, rhythm play, language play, and a good bit of genuine, silly fun. Classes are taught by a registered Music Together teacher who is trained in music development and skilled in leading participatory music activity. Children “bring the music home” to their parents through the family CD and songbook. Please visit the Music Together Preschool section of the website for more information on this program
