Moms know that even babies in the womb respond to music, and caregivers of very young children can see responses to music from baby’s very first days. Most music programs, however, wait until a child is three or four years old before engaging them in music as an activity. B-W is excited to offer MusicPlay - a music and movement experience for young children and their caregivers. In small groups, children learn to recognize musical phrases and develop body coordination through a diverse collection of songs, chants, and movement activities. Children (and caregivers) will be physically and musically engaged in creative and fun experiences to begin a life-long musical journey.
