Did you know sound recognition begins in the womb? Foundations classes are all about exploring and reacting to new sounds, objects, and movements. Plus, parents and caregivers heighten connections with their babies by learning bonding techniques.
Digital albums, narrated e-books, and more are available on our password-protected family platform, accessible via desktop, tablet, or mobile devices.

- Enjoy narrated swipeable books
- Explore instrument play
- Browse kid-friendly craft videos
- And more!
Kindermusik Foundations
The Foundations class is so much more than lullabies and swaying. We teach families how sound exploration, listening activities, and dances help babies communicate, stimulate eye-tracking skills, and learn to move and coordinate new muscles.
- Movement Control
Different movement activities help babies strengthen their core muscles, which increases their sense of balance and control over movements. - Social Adaptability
Group activities allow babies to experience familiar and unfamiliar social experiences in a safe and secure way. - Listening and Communication Skills
Listening to music and doing vocal play exercises helps develop a baby’s back-and-forth communication skills. - Language and Literacy Development
Introducing spoken sounds and rhythms through songs and rhymes helps support language and literacy development.

Welcome to our studio. We are passionate in our commitment to bringing music into the lives of every child. Our Mission is to provide your family with a class or lesson that promotes Joy, Safety, and Value.
------ KINDERMUSIK CLASSES ------
ATTENDANCE:
- Regular attendance is important to a child’s sense of security. It is important that you make every effort to attend each class on a regular basis. When you pay your tuition, an instructor is assigned for a specific time each week. Your place in the class is exclusively reserved for you; therefore, there are no refunds or credits for classes missed due to student absence (including student illness or personal obligations).
- You may schedule a make-up in any age-appropriate class during the session you are registered for by emailing karenmusik@sbcglobal.net
- If you will be absent, please extend a courtesy call to your teacher. If possible, a 24-hour notice is greatly appreciated. If for any reason your instructor must cancel a class session, the time will either be made up or a credit will be issued to be applied to your next tuition payment.
TUITION PAYMENT:
- All tuition fees for classes are due upon enrollment. Fees for online registrations will be posted automatically and charged to the credit card provided on the registration form.
- Missed classes are neither prorated nor refundable. Should you decide to discontinue a Kindermusik class, you must do so before the 2nd week to receive a full refund minus a $15 service charge.
