|  |  | |  Designed for children ages 3 – 5 years of age, our Music Meadow classes foster a nurturing environment where musical creativity can flourish. Through movement games, songs, hands-on instrumental exploration, and pretend play, your child will actively experience music while affirming his love for silly fun and imaginative role-play.
Music Meadow activities are aimed toward stimulating language and cognitive skills as well as emphasizing social graces and group cooperation. Children will view and explore many types of instruments and perform in small ensembles.
Throughout the program, the children’s participation is encouraged, but never forced. Parents and caregivers will join their children for part of each class, but not its entirety. This is to encourage the children to develop a sense of independence and self-confidence within a group. Parents are welcome to stay with children who are not yet ready to be separate from them.
Each class concludes with a Together Time that includes a family sing-along, dance, game or musical storytelling.
Danielle Tusch is the instructor for Music Meadow. Danielle has a distinguished background of teaching piano, teaching public school music in the Weston, CT schools, and directing and accompanying musical theater productions in numerous venues in Fairfield County. Mrs. Tusch began the Kindermusik program at WSM and was on our faculty for several years.
