CLASS DESCRIPTION:
Welcome to Baby Bach and Treblemaking Toddlers COMBINED music class, a vibrant ensemble where babies and toddlers aged 0 to 3 years and their beloved caregivers come together to explore the world of music. Set within the lively backdrop of the JCC’s Dorothy Delson Kuhn Music Institute, our class blends the best elements of musical discovery for both age groups, creating a dynamic and inclusive experience.

In this captivating class, we transcend traditional boundaries, offering a rich variety of activities designed to engage and delight young children at every stage of their early development through music and movement. From the gentle melodies that captivate our youngest participants to the interactive rhythms that inspire our budding musicians, each session is crafted to spark curiosity, joy, and connection.

As your little ones embark on their musical journey, they'll be immersed in an environment where wonder and growth intersect, fostering a lifelong love for music. Our program is about cultivating a deep appreciation for the art form that will resonate throughout their lives.

Recognizing that the early years are a shared adventure, our class actively involves parents and caregivers as essential partners in the musical exploration. Through shared moments of discovery and the building of supportive networks, families become integral contributors to the musical growth unfolding in each session, creating a sense of community and empowerment.

Guided by experienced leaders and grounded in Family Life Education (FLE) principles, our class seamlessly integrates expert guidance into every musical interaction. Whether observing your child's musical cues or adapting activities to suit individual needs, we empower parents to play an active role in their child's musical journey, fostering family dynamics that harmonize with each child’s unique stage of development.

Join us in creating melodic memories that resonate far beyond the sounds of each class, as we embark on this joyous musical adventure together.
