Music Enrichment- A workshop designed for 4-year-olds to enhance their musical development. This program uses "play" as a magic key that opens interest and motivation in young children. The children will participate in music activities that will develop pitch, rhythm, and vocal range. A few great composers and their works are introduced in a playful way and stories such as "Peter and the Wolf" and "The Nutcracker" are studied. Everyone is born with the ability for musical expression and early childhood is the time to develop pitch and rhythm. Come and join us to find out just how "musical" your child can really be.
Mini-Picasso-Does your child like to draw and color? Would you like to introduce them to a word of art? All you need is a smock and a little imagination for Mini-Picassos. Using famous artists or literature as inspiration, students will create their own masterpieces.
