A lively approach to music for children aged three and under.

Music with mummy is a structured programme of pre-school music education, which has been running successfully since 1992. It takes the form of a series of 6 weekly sessions designed specifically for children aged three years and under.

 

The AIMS:

:-) To foster in young children the idea that music is a pleasurable social activity

:-)To encourage listening skills, so essential,  not only in music, but in all other areas of learning.

:-) to develop a sense of rhythm through movement, games and the use of simple instruments.

:-) To provide early training in singing

:-) To introduce some basic concepts such as “stop” and “start”, “loud” and “soft”, “up” and “down” etc.

:-) To have fun

 

Sessions will last for 30 minutes and will be limited to 8 children (accompanied by an adult) in each group. Each session will cost £5 per child, payable half-termly in advance.

 

 

 

 

Discover hidden space for dance and art in London.

Looking forward to see you!
