Kindermusik®: The Premier Brain Development / Music Readiness Program for Young Children.
Kindermusik® uses music to encourage early learning and creativity in children newborn to 6 years of age. Music is the means, not the goal. The goal is a more alive, creative and able child. What happens at Kindermusik® can change your child's life forever.
While the Kindermusik® emphasis is on your child's development, not music instruction, there is no better means to introduce your child to music. A Kindermusik® "graduate" is a child eager for instrumental lessons, ready to sing in a choir, join in music classes or an ensemble, and already experimenting with reading and writing the universal language of musical notation.
Kindermusik® makes music a natural part of your child's life. A Kindermusik® child has already succeeded with music and knows the fun of making music with other children. The Kindermusik® group allows your child to learn to perform comfortably in front of others and promotes rhythm and ensemble development.
That's why so many music educators have endorsed Kindermusik®. And why, since its inception in 1976, the Kindermusik® program has grown into an international movement with thousands of teachers in the U.S., Canada, and other countries.
