My child's age is on the border between two groups, which one should I register for?  This depends on the child.  The age ranges are somewhat flexible.  Please let me know that you are unsure which class is right for your child.  If a child has been coming to Kindermusik for a while, he or she can generally move to the next class early.  We will also take into consideration the child's developmental and social skills as well as their comfort level being away from Mom.

Your session started 3 weeks ago and I just registered today; will I be charged for missed classes?  If you register for a session after it has started, the tuition cost will be prorated.

When should I arrive for class?  About 5 minutes before class time is ideal.  This will give you and your child a chance to settle into the musical environment.  Arriving too early may make your child ansie.

What should I bring with me?  In the Village class, you may like to bring a blanket to lie your baby on for exercises.  Older children do not need anything except a pair of socks on their feet.  You do not need to bring home materils back with you.  Toys, juice cups and pacifiers should be kept out of sight in order not to distract the other children.  Please finish snacks before entering the classroom.

I can't wait to make new friends; is class a good time to get to know other moms?  You will meet new families with interests similar to your own and talking during gathering time (the first 5 minutes of class) is great.  After that time, your focus should be on your child.  You are your child's first and best teacher.  Class time is meant to serve as a jumping off point for the rest of your week at home.  In class each week, we do different activities that can be expanded or repeated at home.  Make the most of the session by using your Home Materials each week.  Your child will thank you for it.
