Early childhood music and introductory piano

Through our early childhood music courses your child will develop skills to help with both learning a musical instrument and preparing for school.

LISTENING AND AUDITORY DISCRIMINATION 

  • Developing the ability to listen and hear the various nuances in sound can help with language development and social & emotional development. 

SENSE OF BEAT

  • Developing their underlying feeling for beat/pulse and staying in time improves literacy and numeracy. Experiencing concepts like fast and slow enhances a child's sense of beat. 

RECOGNIZING PATTERNS

  • Music is built on patterns and so are mathematics & language. Many class activities are specifically designed to help your child learn to recognize and predict patterns. 

SOCIAL SKILLS

  • Sitting, waiting, taking turns, being kind to others, and cleaning up are key competencies for success in a school environment. 

CONFIDENCE & SELF-ESTEEM

  • Watch your child's confidence grow each week with little 'I can do it!' moments, along with lots of praise from their teacher and other parents in the class.
