About the class

​

Level 1 classes offer young toddlers a stimulating environment to explore their new movement and language skills with a sense of security, comfort, and confidence. As your child thrives in a music and movement-driven environment, you’ll have the opportunity to connect with other parents and caregivers and learn to use music to create and simplify routines at home.

​

ACTIVITIES

• Back-and-forth vocal plays and other parent-child interactions that build neural pathways in a baby’s developing brain
