Our summer semester has come to an end. These classes will be offered again next summer. Please see the fall semester schedule, due to begin in late September.
In just five lessons experience a summer’s worth of music, stories, and activities
created to inspire a lifetime of learning. In a Kindermusik summer camp, parents
and children will play, learn, sing, dance, create, and share in the fun of making
music together. A trusted Kindermusik educator guides the class through each research-proven
and giggle-approved activity.
We believe parents are a child's best
teacher, which is why Kindermusik home materials are an essential part
of our programs. Making use of these age-appropriate materials at home
means the musical fun and learning continues outside of class. This provides you with the best value for your
Kindermusik dollar. (Please note we make no profit on home materials.)
