mUSicaL mUnchKinSMusical Munchkins was started in 1982 and has received high acclaim ever since, delighting toddlers and preschoolers as they explore their natural musical abilities. Individual personalities shine out in this awesome class! Through the use of various instruments children will learn how to make “soft” and “loud” sounds, and when to play “fast” or “slow”. They will start to play together as a group and learn how a song can guide them through instrument and music play. This unique curriculum grows with your child and changes every season. Parent/Caregiver Participation is required.
