Frequently asked questions

 

FAQs:

1. What is a Music Together (0-5yr olds) class like?

Music Together utlizes kids' natural way of learning, play, to engage in activities and songs that support parents and kids tonal and rhythmic growth. We sing, chant, pretend, stomp, march, and cuddle with our kids while singing and using movement to support each song.

 

2. What is a Rhythm Kids (4-8 yd olds) class like?

Rhythm Kids supports older children's emerging skills as thinkers and game players. While using many of the same activities as Music Together classes, in Rhythm Kids, we ask for kids' input more often, using their ideas to develop songs and movements. 

 

3. Music Together or Rhythm Kids

If you have a 4 or 5 yr old, you may be wondering which class to take? Many factors, such as your child's musical exposure and ability to work well in a group may be factors to help you decide whether to start in Music Together or Rhythm Kids.  While there is no "right" answer, having a conversation with Catherine may help. Please reach out to set up a time to talk ([email protected]).

 

4. I see you offer some outside classes. What about the weather? Outside classes were born out of our desire to meet in person during Covid and the positive impact of more time outside was felt!  In the case or rain, we may look for a pavilion to use through Madison Parks and Rec or turn the class into a Zoom class depending on pavilion availablity or seriousness of weather. Decisions about weather/class changes are made 90 minutes before the start of class and will be emailed out to all class members. In some cases, on bad weather days, if we've got two back to back classes, we may offer one Zoom and one in person class to give families an option. 

Some outdoor locations have bathrooms available. You are always welcome to bring your own potty chair.

 

4. Can I do make up classes for those I miss? Yes! You are welcome to join any class that has room during the semester. Catherine will email you a list of available classes after the first few weeks, and you can email her with your desired make up days.
