Kindermusik Level 3
Our Level 3 classes start with instrument exploration and lean into how to play music as a group. Preschoolers experience all the excitement of new sounds and independent creativity, while fueling their social-emotional development (and school readiness!) by learning how to work together.
- Language Understanding
Children gain a wider vocabulary and knowledge of story structures and learn how to decode and interpret symbols. - Cognitive
Preschoolers show a growing ability to memorize and recall information, and present increased attention and focus. - Listening and Sound Recognition
Children are able to detect patterns, nuances, and timbre in different sounds they hear. - Socialization
Children learn to wait patiently, take turns, work cooperatively in a group, and communicate effectively and respectfully.

WAIVER
I, as a parent/guardian of a minor child(ren) identified in the enrollment form, trust that Tuneful Journey does everything possible to keep us safe but am aware that participation in a physical group activity may result in accident or injury or transmission of an airborne illness (including COVID-19) and assume the risk. I release any and all rights and claims for damages against Tuneful Journey and its Staff in the event of injury or illness sustained by myself or my child(ren) during the course of my enrollment at Tuneful Journey.
ENROLLMENT
The fall and spring semesters each include 14 weeks of classes, paid in four equal installments on the first of the month (September-December for fall and January-April for spring). Piano semesters are 18 weeks and 5 payment installments each, August-December and January-May. Enrollment is not month-to-month, nor does an installment equate to the cost of a full month’s classes. If enrolling after the start of the semester, tuition will be prorated accordingly or make-up classes can be arranged. No refunds are given for missed classes, but unlimited make-up classes are available (see below for more details). Summer classes and camps are also offered, but as separate enrollments.
MAKE-UP CLASSES
No refunds will be given for missed classes; however, you are welcome to unlimited make-up classes by attending another class section throughout the week! These can be scheduled through your account at my.kindermusik.com.
Wishing you a journey full of musical fun and bonding!
