What is Kindermusik?

Music & Movement Classes for Ages 0-7

Kindermusik is the world’s leading provider of music-based education for children from birth through age seven. 

Early childhood is a wonderful window of opportunity for music learning. Music activities are not just fun – they are also a perfect way to help children learn and grow. But a program like Kindermusik offers much more than just a music class. Backed by more than 40 years of experience, Kindermusik is a carefully planned curriculum that celebrates the importance of music and movement to the development of young children.

No child is too young to start Kindermusik. In Kindermusik class, your child is welcomed into a playful and nurturing environment where they will sing, move, play instruments, and hear stories—all while developing social skills, problem-solving skills, pre-math skills, and a foundation for reading. Our research-based curriculum focuses on whole-child development and helps you understand how your child is developing musically, cognitively, and socially.

Kindermusik is the best head start you can possibly give your child. The benefits of music for children are immense. And no matter when you begin your Kindermusik journey, you will find that Kindermusik will give you special moments and delightful memories that you’ll carry with you for the rest of your lives.

A parent or caregiver is required to accompany your child to most Kindermusik classes (see our class descriptions for more details). Most Kindermusik classes are specifically designed to spark interaction between the parent/caregiver and child. One of the basic premises of Kindermusik has always been that the parent is the first and best teacher, and what happens throughout the week at home is just as important as what happens once-a-week in class. Kindermusik promises to give you the time and the tools that help make parenting just a little bit easier.

5 Reasons to Choose Kindermusik

  1. Music stimulates learning, lowers stress, and advances memory, attention, and brain development.
  2. Combining music with movement creates new learning pathways in the brain while enhancing motor skills and muscle development.
  3. Kindermusik combines structure with flexibility to enable children of all temperaments to flourish. A quiet child is allowed to observe and absorb, while a highly active child’s energy can be funneled into a creative and positive experience.
  4. Most Kindermusik classes include a storytime, encouraging early literacy development and skills such as listening, sequencing, empathy, and anticipation.
  5. Gathering in a group to sing and play is a positive way to lower inhibitions, build self-esteem, and foster a sense of inclusion and belonging. Group learning also helps children develop social skills such as turn-taking and cooperation.
