RealKids Early Childhood Music

Drawing on the theories of Carl Orff and the Orff-Schulwerk philosophy, RealKids Early Childhood Music is the perfect introduction to music for children from three months to nine years of age.

These fun-filled, interactive classes incorporate the following.

  • Singing activities to enhance listening skills and speech development
  • Dance and movement activities to boost balance, awareness, and coordination
  • Percussion instruments (pitched and unpitched) to help develop meter and rhythm

Classes are presented by age to enhance your child's growth and development experience, as well as provide a deeper bonding opportunity for parents and caregivers.

These weekly 45-minute sessions allow children and parent/caregivers to participate at their own level using a family-oriented approach to music making. This exciting new program is designed for age-specific learning to increase your child's successful development.
