 Young children are very curious about the world around them, eager to explore and make discoveries. This natural curiosity is an important component in the development of creative thought. Kindermusik Adventures draws on your child’s natural curiosity and nurtures it to support his/her creative potential. Using an integrated approach with music, movement, storytelling, and (for the upper ages) pretend play, drama, and art, Adventures stimulates imagination, spontaneity, inquiry, and a love of music & life for your child.
The Kindermusik class environment employs the best of developmentally appropriate practice as identified by the National Association for Education of Young Child which means:

The game “peekaboo” is the most basic of parent-baby games, yet one of the richest. In one simple gesture, baby’s beloved adult magically appears in response to baby’s desire – smiling, looking on at baby, telling baby with face and eyes alight, “I am here just for your, whenever you need me; you are adorable, and I love you so much!” No wonder babies have a seemingly unending appetite for this game! Who could resist such a powerful message? Parents everywhere play peekaboo, wiggle little fingers and toes, roll balls for baby, and sing lullabies. This curriculum is inspired by songs and baby games from many countries around the world and will help your family create your own multicultural celebration of baby’s growth and family love.
Family Time
Give your child something to talk about in his/her own backyard. Be the flower from the “seed’s perspective.” Run and jump in rain puddles made from hula hoops. Your child is naturally curious about the world around them. Creatures in My Backyard encourages them to explore their environment and make new discoveries. Through music, movement and dance, storytelling and instrument exploration, your child will uncover the creatures living in their own backyard – from birds, turtles, squirrels, and rabbits to flowers, caterpillars, and bumble bees! Weekly themes include Nesting in a Tree, Digging in the Dirt, Flying to a Flower, Hiding in the Grass, and Sitting on the Porch. 
Zoo Train! was written to capture the delightful experiences children have at the zoo, drawing on the movements, sights, and sounds of the zoo animals to inspire musical experiences and the beginnings of imaginary play. Your toddler will delight to hear the sounds of the animals, ride the imaginary train, take a ride on the bright carousel and picnic together on a summer day. A trip to the zoo is a classic family activity, offering young children a memorable and multi-sensory experience. Musical instruments create opportunity for each child to add their own rhythmic movements to the music. Parents, “Dress comfortable!” You’ll become giraffes and zebras and penguins and ponies right along with your children. However, we’ll also have time to be quiet together as your toddler is encouraged to practice the art of calming themselves during the quiet times
Relive your childhood, with your child with this Kindermusik favorite. Every song is likely to revive a memory from your summers past. At home, parents will love remembering and singing favorite camp songs along with their child. Songs help us enjoy singing around the campfire, swimming in the lake and playing "Eye Spy” and other traveling games. We will enjoy some lazy time as we create and find shapes in the clouds to pass the time. We’ll take imaginary trips to vacation destinations in a bus named "Van Go." We’ll weave the music into our travel to the cottage, the beach, the fair, and go on a camping trip as we create our own "family adventures" through our imaginative play. At Home materials include the CD of all the music we learn, a frog guiro, the "Van Go" book and our weekly craft project. Parents join us for the last 15 minutes of class to share the excitement and help make the transitions for going home.|
Through storytelling, your child will develop an early awareness of rhythm, movement, singing, and drama. Each lesson in this newly developed curriculum features a new tale from around the world, explored through multi-instrument and multi-cultural elements. All told, it's an around-the-imagination adventure of the greatest stories from Europe, Malaysia, South Africa, and more. A Home CD, book, parent poster, and lummi sticks allow the children to continue their multi-cultural experiences of music and drama long after the class has ended. Day one: European Bremen Town musicians
