Nature Trail

(Ages 4-6) 

This class is designed to nurture the emergent independence of the 4 to 6 year old. Activities include lots of singing, chants, and rhymes, listening games, patterns to echo and movement games, all of which nurture the child's musical development. Activites also help to develop listening, focused attention, imagination, creativity and self-expression. Curriculum focuses on the changing natural world and engages the child as a participant in the changing environment.

For summer, the children are independant the first 30 minutes of the class and then parents join in for the last 15 minutes. 

Home materials, including a CD, songbook and manipulatives allow the learning and fun to continue at home.
