Winter 2026
Sticks collection
Winter registration is open!
This winter we'll explore the Sticks Collection, a wonderful treasury of music for singing, dancing, and playing. We'll enjoy the mesmerizing "Spin and Stop," dance lots of different ways with "The Tailor and the Mouse," and listen to the many sounds water makes with "Water Play." We'll sing in Chinese and Spanish, play with sticks and balls, visit Grandma on our horses and go driving in the car - and much more!
As always, grownups are indispensable to our musical time together; our emphasis is on the caregiver-to-child relationship. Small children are not expected to focus; rather, they are encouraged to respond spontaneously to the musical environment. We use singing, movement, rhythmic chants, instrument play, and lots of other ways to express ourselves musically during class. Children are welcome to move around the room, sit and watch, or dance while we're sitting. As long as their grownups are engaged in making music, the children are learning by their role model that music-making is a fun and valuable family activity.
The cost for the ten week session is $225 for one child and $100 for additional siblings. Siblings younger than one and older than five attend for free. New families please add a one-time new family registration fee of $10. Community center pricing may be different.
Join us and fill your family's winter with the magic of music, fun and friendship!
