Music Together

Infants and Toddlers (0-5)

Build on your child’s natural enthusiasm for music and movement and learn the skills to support the natural process of music development.

Music Together

Did you know all children are musical? Music Together is an early childhood music and movement program for children and the grownups who love them! Our family music classes show parents, teachers, and caregivers how to help their children become confident music-makers just by having fun making music themselves.

Music Together brings families of all kinds together in a warm, supportive environment where everyone feels comfortable singing, dancing, and jamming. Creating lasting family and community bonds through music is a huge part of our programs.

Helping Children Grow Through Music

Children learn when they’re dancing, singing, and having fun! Music Together teaches music skills to young children, while actively supporting their social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development.

Grownups enjoy Music Together classes as much as kids do! Our no-work, all-play classes give families time to relax and have fun together, a gift for busy parents and caregivers who have fewer and fewer opportunities for family time. Our classes strengthen bonds between families, too. Sharing experiences that touch the heart brings everyone closer as a community.

Music Together exposes your family to the rich diversity of Greater Washington community, including songs that represent many different musical styles and traditions. Our classes broaden families’ horizons by inviting them to take a musical spin around the globe and to get to know cultures other than their own.

Most people think being musical is a question of talent—you either have it or you don’t. While that may sound reasonable, it’s completely untrue! All children can learn to dance and sing just as naturally as they learn to walk and talk. With this in mind, we formulated four basic principles that guide everything we do.
