The Music Together®® program encourages your child's innate ability to sing in tune, create rhythms and participate in music making with joy and confidence. Regardless of your own musical background, as parent or caregiver, your participation is inspirational for children to develop musically. Musical participation is not based on talent, but on exposure and experience at a young age. Exposure at a young age brings confidence with music throughout life. Enrichment means starting musical experience at birth. Giving children and parents access to music offers an opportunity to be more attuned to and appreciative of music and the arts in general. The Music Together® Philosophy- All children are musical. - Therefore, all children can achieve basic music competence, which we have defined as the ability to sing in tune and move with accurate rhythm. - The participation and modeling of parents and caregivers, regardless of their musical ability, is essential to a child's musical growth. - This growth is best achieved in a playful, developmentally appropriate, non-performance-oriented learning environment that is musically rich yet immediately accessible to the child's - and the adult's - participation. Why Mixed Age Classes? The mixed age (for birth to age 5) class follows the recommendations of child development researchers-grouping children of a variety of ages because this fosters natural, family-style learning. Younger children enjoy watching and imitating older ones; older children learn by leading younger ones; and adults are happy because the children in the family can go to class together. Children of mixed ages participate at their own level by singing, moving, chanting, listening, and exploring with musical instruments. 3 1/2 - 5 year old ClassTo attend the 3 1/2 - 5 year old class, your child must be 3.5 years of age at the beginning of the semester and must have had at least 2 prior semesters in the mixed age class. The children's suggestions are used in the classroom when playing instruments, moving & making up verses. The structure is still playful allowing some children to make up their own tonal and rhythm patterns and lead the group during musical games. Babies Class Every child’s development benefits from early exposure to music and movement. Because the early months are so important, Music Together offers two options for babies. Babies eight months and younger at the time of registration may attend a Mixed Ages Class, whether registered on their own or attending free with an older brother or sister. Babies may also take the special “Babies Class” offered as a one-semester introduction to Music Together. (This class cannot be repeated.) The music activities and materials are specially designed for parents who want to learn as much as possible about music development in babies. Meet other parents of newborns and learn some fascinating music activities you can recreate at home with your baby.

Through the efforts of this program we hope to bring the Music Together® classroom experience to families in our community who would not otherwise have the means to participate. You play a vital role to the success of this program in two ways; by donating as little as $5 or as much as an entire tuition toward the Scholarship Fund each semester and/or by offering the name of a family you would like to see awarded a scholarship (all information received is considered confidential). If you are interested in donating to the Molly Hartman Memorial Scholarship simply add the additional donation to your current registration tuition check and that you are making a donation on your registration form.
