Your child's developing ability to feel, cope with and express all her emotions is so very important at this age. You'll see how the activities we do in Our Time address the emotional characteristics and tendencies of this stage that we sometimes call the "rubber band" stage. We'll honor your child's desire for freedom and the chance to explore and experiment while we also make sure she feels safe and supported. The activities will encourage her to be creative, to initiate her own ideas and to respond in her own ways, while your active participation will give her the security she needs.

In Our Time, "Exploration Time" facilitates her discovery of instruments, textures, sounds and movement. Language skills are fostered with singing and vocal play. Creative dancing to different musical "moods" affirms her urge to move. The anticipation and rewards of listening are introduced, and with turn-taking activities, social skills blossom. Essentially, Our Time provides the safety of training wheels for the bicycle of pre-school!

Our Time At Home materials will extend the fun and discovery of the classroom into your home: Two CDs filled with beautiful music featuring folk songs from around the world in many different languages, calypso tunes, classical works, and sounds from the natural world that invite your child to listen, respond and create!

Also included are two Music and Movement Books created exclusively for the Kindermusik Library, a Home Activity Book which features songs from class, creative activities for play at home, and Kindermusik Foundations of Learning insights and an instrument exclusively created for Kindermusik Our Time to extend your and your child's enjoyment of Kindermusik at home.

This fall, join us for "Milk & Cookies"

Milk & Cookies makes everyday home activities and chores easier and more fun with music! Cook and sing to “The Muffin Man”; dust and clean to the original song “In My House”; get ready to wash clothes to the delightful poem “Washing Machine”. Baking cookies, eating cupcakes, blowing on hot cross buns, wiggling like jelly, going grocery shopping and making tea are all represented in familiar as well as new songs. Move, play, and sing together in developmentally appropriate activities created just for 1 ½ to 3-year-olds. Capture the familiar and new moments of the day and learn how music can impact your toddler.

At Home Materials : Two Books—At My House and Cookies, Two Home CDs, Stir Xylophone instrument, and a Home Activity Book—all arriving in a durable, insulated lunch bag.
