My 3 grandchildren just love the teachers, Sharon and Marlys! They are extremely aware, patient and organized helping them express themselves during class with musical instruments, song and dancing props. Their education and training shows! They have brought out the best in my special needs grandson, who responds wonderfully to beat and rhythm. They taught me how early childhood music education promotes brain development in a way that nothing else does.
My oldest grandson still remembers his teachers fondly and how much fun he had. Try the class out! You will be happy you did. My husband just added "fantastic" - passionate about music!

Let's Make Music a School is soooo much fun! I took my 2 year old and 4 month old to their class and my boys were both so engaged! The class is very nicely structured so the kids get to play instruments, read a story and dance around! The teachers are super upbeat, musically talented and make the class really fun for all ages! We will definitely go back!

I have twin boys and they just love this class! The structure of the class moves from one activity to the next with excellent timing. My boys are engaged with it all! It's hard to find an activity to bring them to without another adult. This class is perfect because it's in an enclosed large room, and the teachers are very involved and supportive. I look forward to bringing them to these music classes in the future.

We love this music class! My boys both attended these music classes for several years, one starting when he had just turned 1 until he started Kindergarten, and one starting when he was 4 months old (and actually even before that, since he was there with me when I was pregnant with him!) until he started Kindergarten. My boys love music, and they have gotten so much out of these classes.
What I love most is how interactive the classes are. Parents/caregivers are just as involved as the children, and it's a wonderful opportunity for parents/caregivers to interact with their children in a fun and meaningful way. The great teachers and wonderful people we have met make this class feel like family to us. :)

0 reviews 5.0 star rating 8/20/2017 I've been taking my 4 1/2 year old to this class since he was 3 months old! And his 2 year old sister joined him when she was born as well! So needless to say, we love it and it's been a great experience! I would wear my newborn and she would sleep while I danced, sang and played with my son. It was (and still is) our Tuesday routine that we all look forward to.
I love that it is a structured class with a theme and each class you know the routine. But they switch it up each week with different instruments to explore and a book that goes along with the theme of the session. It is also in a nice multi purpose room at the rec center, so the kids have an enclosed space to enjoy the class and move around. The teachers are great about giving each child their freedom to express themselves but they try to redirect them back to the group activity.
It's a nice balance. We'll be there for another 2 years with my daughter, I hope! It's also affordable compared to many other classes for this age group. There's also an outdoor playground at the rec center we often walk to after class and have a little picnic snack! It's great!
