The class focuses on music exploration and play, which are essential in children’s cognitive and kinesthetic development. Children with little or no singing experience will enjoy singing, moving, playing musical games, and instrument exploration with others in a structured manner. Children will tune their voices to the teacher and to one another and learn to sing in a clear and pleasing manner. Children will learn basic singing techniques in a group setting, including pitch matching, breath support, and body awareness.
