In Rhythm Kids®, children ages 4-8 dig deeper and gain a richer understanding of how music works.
Each week we drum, sing, dance, play rhythm instruments and music-based games that reinforce, in a fun, playful manner, the rhythm patterns that we learn in class. Rhythm Kids™ guides children toward developmentally appropriate music and movement activities, where they can begin to take charge, lead others, and be musically creative, as they:
make up their own drumming patterns
invent new ways to play rhythm instruments (shakers, sticks, etc.)
create movement ideas for songs
practice soloing, ensemble play and conducting!
Rhythm Kids™ carries on the Music Together® vision to help children complete the pathway of early childhood music development from birth through age eight. Classes include:
10 weekly, 45-minute classes (6 in the Summer)
Songbook, CDs and Download Codes
Access to online drum-play videos and other material
8 unique musical collections, or 2-years full of material from 6 continents!
Children will:
Explore the world of rhythm through movement, instrument play, and song
Improve their rhythmic skills, like keeping a variety of levels of beat,
Learn to create, improvise, cooperate, and express themselves musically
In a Rhythm Kids™ class, parents are welcome to stay and participate or children may attend on their own, if they're ready. When parents and caregivers choose to attend class, too, they not only amplify their children’s learning, but also have a great time singing, moving, and dancing. Either way, we ask parents to remain onsite, even if the children are attending alone.
Classes are now available in Stone Ridge!

Whether as a stand-alone music class or as a companion to formal instruction, Rhythm Kids® helps children develop the facility, repertoire, and creativity that will allow them to unleash their own music-making potential.
