So, you had a baby.

You’ve done the stay-at-home thing for weeks now, and maybe you’re thinking, perhaps I should expose my tiny human to something educational outside of the house? Something social with other Boca moms? Something that’s sanity saving but it’s also fun?

Anyone can join your standard “Mommy & Me” class, but my absolute favorite Boca baby course? Musikgarten.

Early music education is very important! Musikgarten offers a comprehensive early childhood program that spans the first nine years of a child’s musical development. Not only does it help with all areas of development, it creates a special bond within your family. When music and movement are a natural, joyous part of childhood, children benefit greatly in so many areas of life.

“Children love the progression from semester to semester, as patterns and songs are repeated and built upon, addressing students’ needs at each level,” said Diana Rush, Boca Raton Musikgarten instructor and founder ofMusikgarten by the Beach. “Language development, self-expression, memory skills, concentration, social interaction, fine motor skills, listening, problem solving, teamwork, goal setting and coordination are all impacted by early music and movement education. And Mom and Dad can both participate!”

Top 5 reasons why music activities are ideal for your growing child:

  1. Music immerses the child in language.
  2. Evokes movement.
  3. Stimulates the brain.
  4. Fosters physical coordination.
  5. Develops listening skills, the foremost necessity for learning.

So how do you get your baby, toddler or preschooler involved? Sign up or simply drop-in. Current schedules for East and Central Boca can be found onwww.musikgartenbythebeach.com.
