​At the studio, we will teach your preschooler many different concepts through a fun music enrichment class! Classes reinforce concepts such as colors, shapes, letters, numbers, as well as beginner music concepts like​ slow/fast, quiet/loud, and stop/go. Music makes learning more fun! We start with singing fingerplay songs and dancing to reinforce gross motor movement. After dancing, we will play musical games that teach concepts such as shapes, colors, letters, numbers, or the kids will learn beginner musical concepts playing instruments. They will also learn early music theory: rhythm/melody, instrument recognition, and sound patterns through fun games!

Ms. Libby's offers a beginner "step up" piano program for children starting at the age of 3.5 that introduces piano at every stage of learning! Our Preschool and Kinder age classes spend time at the keyboards as well as engage in active learning games in a 30-minute class, while our Big Kid Piano students are learning on larger keyboards in a fun 45-minute class that mimics a private lesson to prepare them for that next step. Children will build a strong foundation in rhythm, listening and early note reading while developing confidence in piano.
No experience needed- just curiosity and a love of music!
