All Ages, All Stages

Music Together® classes are all about relaxed, informal music-making for the whole family, regardless of age, stage, or learning style. Because the things we do in class are developmentally appropriate for all participants, you and your child with special needs are always welcome to join our warm and inviting communities of singing, dancing, instrument-playing families.

Mixed-Age Classes

Children with special needs fit right in to our Mixed-Age classes! Mixed-Age classes include children from birth through age 5, so most of them are at different stages of development. All learning styles are respected, and regardless of age or stage, all children are encouraged to participate in their own way.

If you are interested in visiting a free mixed-age demo Music Together class, here are a few suggestions to make your experience as positive as possible:

  • Be sure your child is well-rested and not hungry. It's hard to be musical on an empty stomach!

  • Arrive a few minutes early to allow your child to get accustomed to the classroom.

  • Show enthusiasm about being in music class! If you think Music Together is fun, so you will your child.

  • Allow your child to experience the class in their own way—this is a great opportunity to observe your child experiencing music!

  • If your child is learning about gentle touch, stay close by and, when needed, gently redirect them back to making music with you.

  • Feel free to speak with your Music Together teacher or center director if you have questions or concerns.

Supportive Family Classes

At our center, we're always exploring new ways to bring the joy of music to everyone in our community. If there's interest, we'd be delighted to offer a specialized music class designed for children with special educational needs (SEN). This class would feature all the wonderful elements of a typical Music Together class—engaging songs, lively movement activities, and hands-on instrument play—tailored to provide a more personalized experience in a small group setting.

Our instructors are skilled in creating inclusive environments where every child can thrive, and we'd love to extend that support to SEN families in our community. If this is something you're interested in, please reach out to our director. Your input could help us make this class a reality!
