All Ages: Show and Tell (Part 2).Amber Nicole Dilger, instructor.
This class is the second half to our Creative Play with Music Adventure. You’ll have had a little time to put together a project on the fly and will now share it here with everyone. This is improvisation, imagination, and creativity at its best! It’s also a great way to practice sharing our ideas with others in a safe and supportive environment. A responsible adult is encouraged to participate along with with students, although being on camera isn’t necessary.

All Ages: Music FUNdamentals Online.Amber Nicole Dilger, instructor.
This class focuses on introducing the basics of music and learning online to students between 5-7 years old. A responsible adult is encouraged to participate along with students, although being on camera isn’t necessary. We’ll introduce useful online resources to help make learning music even more fun.
These classes are a great way to connect with young peers in a creative and supportive way! Adults need to be close by in case there are tech issues, but you don't need to be on screen. We have lots of hands-on activities with things that are easy to find around the house, and you just might discover that you have as much fun as the kiddos when you play along.
