Because your child deserves a chance to grow up bilingual. . . fun for the WHOLE family--older kids too!

Weekly interactive class, plus on-demand recordings of the classes, song recordings (downloadable and CD); songbook; and Family Playground language enrichment!

In Winter 2021, every family gets El cascabel, a gorgeous CD and matching illustrated songbook. We'll explore feelings and emotions such as happiness, pain, hope, and pride, in a way that children can relate to. We learn that although sometimes we feel sad, the people and things we love will make us feel better. Through our songs we will express what we want, what we like, and what we can do. Of course, as always, there are songs about animals, musical instruments, folk songs, as well as silly songs that make us laugh. The class is suited for native Spanish speakers AND for rank beginners, both adult and child.

Sing and Dance With Me, Spanish Musical Culture

You can take this class alongside Music Together, or you can save it for when your child "graduates" from Music Together. Canta y Baila Conmigo is a class for children up to 6 years old accompanied by an adult. This class is designed to support both Spanish language development and cultural competence through the use of children's songs and traditional music from Spain and Latin America. It is ideal for bilingual parents and caregivers seeking an authentic setting in which to interact in Spanish with their own children as well as with a broader Spanish-speaking community. Class will be conducted in Spanish for a full immersion experience. However, this class is not limited to fluent speakers of Spanish. Beginners and intermediate speakers wishing to learn along with their children will find a fun, safe and supportive environment in which to experience the Spanish language as well as Hispanic musical traditions. Participants will receive a songbook and CD created especially for each session.
