ABC Music & Me Transitions
January – Rhythms of the Land
In class we’ll explore the rhythms and sounds of Native American music. As we investigate, compare, and contrast a wide variety of drums and the materials they’re made from, your preschooler develops the investigative vocabulary she’ll need in the sciences. When you repeat that learning pattern at home and share the activities in your Student Kit, your child gets an early start in math, too. Student Kit includes jingle stick, CD, and mini-literature magazine.
February – Sounds Abound
This month we’ll use a new instrument: our bodies. In class we’ll explore all the sounds we can make with our mouths, our bodies, and our own two hands. With your Student Kit find instructions for instruments made from found objects around the house and play along with the music. Do so and your preschooler develops an early understanding of technology and how one material can be used to make something else. Activities in your Student Kit help you bring these big ideas home when you take part in the listening, turn-taking, and sound-effect making activities. Student Kit includes CD and mini-literature magazine.
March – Dance With Me
This month, we’ll feature the music and dance of “one-two” rhythms, and “one-two-three” rhythms. In class, we’ll hear real instruments from the ballet and learn a few dance steps, too. Activities like dance, where your child follows a short sequence of instructions, helps to strengthen memory and his ability to follow directions. At home, play the CD in your Student Kit and let your preschooler show you a new step or two. Student Kit includes lumi stix, CD, and mini-literature magazine.

ABC Music & Me, created by Kindermusik International, is a new music enrichment program designed specifically for 4-to-6-year-old children without parent. This transition program is offered in monthly focus units with weekly 45-minute classes including keyboard exploration. Each lesson emphasizes a different area of a child's development: confidence, coordination, vocal expressiveness, careful listening, and early exposure to reading skills.
ABC Music & Me is much more than a
weekly class. And your At Home materials
are just the tools you need to continue
that one-of-a-kind experience together
as a family. While we plant the seeds of
learning through music in the classroom,
you will use the At Home materials at
home to cultivate lifelong learning.
Each month unit children receive a
new set of At Home Materials
A Home CD
A Family Activity Magazine
An instrument every other month.
