Now Hosting Music Fun Time Classes!
Music FunTime offers unique and proven-effective preschool and young child music classes for children 18 months to 5 years of age. The structured, comprehensive curriculum incorporates music theory (reading staff music, rhythm, note values, time signatures, etc.) and application (playing rhythm instruments, keyboard, sing along, music appreciation, movement). It accesses children's learning through their brain's 'play center,' using themed games, attractive visuals, and delightful auditory aids that make learning exciting and fun. Kids look forward to it!
We currently host Music FunTime classes on Saturday mornings. Contact the office at 484-508-5895 to schedule your 1st month! -- Click Here for more info about Music Fun Time https://musicfuntime.org/index.html
