Kindermusik Mixed Age
Sometimes, the best learning happens when we’re all together. Mixed age classes allow families with siblings, neighbor groups of varying age levels, and anyone who’s drawn to the time slot to attend. Educators accommodate powerful and enjoyable music and movement activities for all stages of development, so that everyone is comfortable, engaged, and learning!

They’ll interact with other children and engage in movement, rhythm, and vocal activities that develop far more than just music skills.
