Young Child students explore many facets of music – speaking, singing, moving, listening, creating, playing instruments, and learning about reading and writing music. Creative movement or dances are interspersed with quiet activities like drawing or focused listening. Instrument playing skills are developed with the introduction of the glockenspiel a pre-keyboard instrument, (semester 1), and dulcimer (semester 3). Through creative learning activities, your child will begin to read music and to create musical compositions: accomplishments that will instill confidence in his own musical abilities. The capstone of Kindermusik, Young Child is the perfect pressure-free preparation for private instrumental instruction.
Young Child Semester 1
Semester 1 of Kindermusik for the Young Child opens the world to new and different ways of learning about music. The focus and content includes beat versus no beat, percussion instruments, brass instruments, melodic direction, exploring the staff, and notation. Semester 1 also introduces the glockenspiel, a pre-keyboard instrument.
This is the first semester of continuous learning. By the end of the 4 Young Child semesters your child will know how to read & play simple songs, read notation, note value & rhythms, be familiar with key signatures & will be able to play 3 different instruments – glockenspiel, dulcimer & recorder.
Semester 3
In Semester3 of Kindermusik for the Young Child children are delighted to learn more about stringed instruments with the introduction to their very own dulcimers in Semester 3. Other musical concepts taught include call and response, improvisation, meter, notation, and a touch of Tchaikovsky.

Kindermusik is an award-winning enrichment program for young children. It is a research-based language and early literacy program built around music that helps develop pre-literacy and language skills through a child’s most-loved rituals: music, movement and story time. ABC Music & Me supports the early childhood standards and requirements for “high quality programs” as defined by the National Institute for Early Education. Plus for the older age group, it aligns with pre-K national and state standards.
ABC Music & Me – 18months - 4 Year Olds – with Caregivers
Animals A-Dancing
Dancing, hopping, rolling, and stomping. This month we’ll move like all of our animal friends and develop muscle coordination and spatial awareness along the way. Your Home Kit features songs for wiggling and helps toddlers develop dexterity and fine-motor skills. Your magazine-style Family Guide also includes at-home activity ideas, games, and questions that involve the class story, so your child develops memory and comprehension—all in the context of sharing time with you. Home Kit: Home CD and magazine-style Family Guide (includes the class story Frog Went a-Dancing)
Around the Farm
In class, your child’s memory and sequence skills will strengthen with stop-and-go games tucked into stories and pretend play about animals on a farm. You’ll find these stories and songs in your Home Kit, too. So when you play this month’s featured rhythm stick instruments along with the recordings, you help your child develop rhythm, coordination, and the confidence that comes with learning and playing along with you.
Home Kit: Pair of Rhythm Sticks, Home CD, and magazine-style Family Guide (includes the class story Cows in the Kitchen)
ABC Music & Me – 4 - 6 Year Olds – with Caregivers
Jumping Beans
In class, your child’s memory and sequence skills will strengthen with stop-and-go activities—all set to the music of Latin America. Tucked into stories and pretend play activities, stop-and-go games help your preschooler control body motions and follow directions on the go. Share the stories and activities in your Home Kit and you’ll strengthen self-discipline skills at home, too. Home Kit: One Pan Flute Instrument, Home CD, and magazine-style Family Guide (includes the class story A Quieter Instrument)
Join the Parade
You can watch this month’s theme in your own home town with the season’s upcoming holiday parades. In class, we’ll listen to marching music, play pretend parades, and help your preschooler develop rhythm and coordination skills. Marching to the beat of his own drum—in class and at home—helps your preschooler make a vital rhythm and body connection, one that’s necessary to help him master any number of movement activities such as writing, dribbling and shooting a basketball, dancing, and skipping. Home Kit: Home CD and magazine-style Family Guide (includes the class story Henry’s Parade)
