Children are introduced to sounds and music (show photo). They explore sound created by a variety of materials ranging from household items to authentic musical instruments. We incorporate music into the school experience to create a shared bond between children, parents, teachers and peers. In addition, we are mindful of the strong connection between music and math, body-awareness, joy, and a sense of wellness. Our program guides children through the magical journey of exploring the fundamentals of music in an age appropriate manner. Our talented music educators and faculty select musical experiences that highlight and help children categorize the experience of High—Low (pitch),Loud—Soft (dynamics),Fast—Slow (tempo), Smooth—Detached (articulation), Duple—Triple (meter), Steady Beat (tempo), Timbre (the quality of sound).
In addition to encouraging infants to explore and create sounds with various interesting items in our programs, they are introduced to authentic musical instruments by professional artists who perform especially for them. Infants are trusted to climb on authentic saxophones, harps, and guitars.
