MUSICAL READINESS

Musical Readiness - Timeline

Tots N’ Tune and First Steps in Music

Tots N’ Tune and First Steps in Music: group programming exposes your young one to music and helps child and caregiver bond and explore together! These sessions help to socialize, aid in name recognition and language development, and foster a love and curiosity for music.

... Age 2

By age 2, group interaction becomes more fun and varied: your child will start to move differently to varied musical styles as they develop musical preferences and improve coordination. If you’d like private early childhood music instruction, we can focus on your toddler’s learning styles and interests while trying different musical elements and instruments.
