Village (birth to 18 months)
These Kindermusik Village topics last for 8 weeks.
Cock-a-doodle-Moo!
Hop on the hayride - it's time to head for the farm! In the Cock-a-doodle-MOO! unit of Kindermusik
Village, you will sing songs about the farm, including "Old MacDonald", "Hayride", and "Clever Cows".
You'll engage in rituals and playful activities for baby and you, including infant massage, lap bounces,
exercise, and quiet time. During the week, you will enjoy your At Home Materials, looking through a
playful picture book and colourful art banners of animals and the sounds they make, as well as a CD
of the songs heard in class and a sunshine jingle instrument for music-making at home.
Join us for breakfast at 9:20 on May 2 and stay on for the Village class!
Please call me to confirm.
Dew Drops - starts May 23
Stop and smell the roses - and lily of the valley, and tulips, and pansies . . . in the Dew Drops unit
of Kindermusik Village, families will play and move together to songs about flowers, such as "Jasmine Flower",
"How Does Your Garden Grow?", and "White Coral Bells". They'll also hear traditional Irish music: they'll dance
a jig, move to the "Irish Trot", and exercise to "Did You Ever See a Lassie". In their At Home Materials,
families will receive a CD of beautifully arranged songs from class, a board book of flowers, and an instrument
for music-making at home.

ABC Music and Me (18 months to 3 years)
Each Kindermusik ABC Music and Me topic lasts for 5 or 6 weeks.
Home Sweet Home - starts April 28
Home Sweet Home encourages each child to experiment with rhythms, pitches and sounds and
your child will experience and absorb the concepts of high and low, fast and slow, and loud and
quiet through hearing, seeing, moving and feeling. The pretend play element will have your child
transforming sandblocks into hammers and transforming her/himself into a cook and a carpenter!
The Home Sweet Home At Home Materials include a Family Guide and Home CD and a set of sandblocks.
The Family Guide suggests home activities and includes a story featured in class. The Home CD includes
all the songs from the class and a narration of A House is a House for Me - the story featured
in the Family Guide.
Let's Play - starts June 13
Let's Play builds co-operative play and whole-body movement skills. Each child will practise
locomotor development by turning, standing on one foot and reaching for the sky. Social interaction
skills are enhanced as each child will get a turn at playing the tambourine, encouraging turn taking.
The Let's Play At Home Materials include a Family Guide, Home CD and tambourine. The Family Guide
suggests home activities, and includes the read-along story, Golden Bear, about a boy who takes
his teddy bear with him for a day of activities together. The CD includes all the songs from the class
and a narration of Golden Bear.
