Kindermusik Family Time Curriculum for Fall 2013:
Movin’ & Groovin’ is a romping, rolling, stretching good time for the whole family. This ten-lesson unit of Family Time will explore lots of different ways to move—high and low, fast and slow, zigzag, curvy, and more. Family members will chug around the classroom like trains, clip-clop like horses, and roll over like puppy dogs. They’ll hear a story about playing tag together in Can You Catch Me?, and read about a jungle hokey-pokey in Put Your Left Paw In. Show your best groovin’ moves—it’s time for Movin’ & Groovin’.Home Materials: Two Books—Can You Catch Me? and Put Your Left Paw In, two Home CDs, Family Guide, and two monkey den-den drums.
What Families Experience in Class:
- Singing -- From the first “Hello” song to the last “Goodbye,” exploring a variety of musical styles and genres leads children to find their own voice. Plus singing helps with memory and recall, physical development, creativity, and socialization.
- Assorted Movement -- Whether moving as a family, as a class, or as individuals, Family Time movement activities enhance coordination skills, create opportunities for imitation and exploration, and give everyone something to smile, rock, bounce, or dance about.
- Story Time -- Reading aloud to children stimulates their curiosity, expands their knowledge, and broadens their understanding of language.
- Family Jam -- Children as well as adults will love selecting a unique instrument and joining in one big class jam instrument play along session each week.
- Musical Concepts -- Fun engaging activities bring out the musicality in everyone, from the youngest member of the family to the oldest. Families learn more about music as they learn more about each other.
- Expert advice -- A Kindermusik educator explains how the musically based activities enhance each child’s complete development.
- Learning continues at home -- With the home materials, the learning and bonding continues at home with the child’s best teacher—the parent!
