“Music is one of the greatest gifts a parent or caregiver can give a child…”
Mitchell Conservatorium's Early Childhood Music classes are a wonderful introduction to the world of music for children as young as one year of age.
The carefully planned program starts with one year-old children and continues until preschool age. Children are welcome to join at any time.
In these classes, children find their musical voice; grow in their self-esteem and self-confidence through exploring the colourful world of music. With a selection of songs, children gain an understanding of beat, rhythm, pitch, tone, colour and dynamics. Playing a variety of tuned and un-tuned percussion instruments provide further stimulus to children’s coordination skills and musical awareness in small group settings.

Parents and carers are valuable partners as two and three year old children enjoy singing and memorizing tunes and works of simple song and rhymes, honing fine and gross motor skills as they jump, run, tap sticks and clap hands, listen to sounds in their environments, on tape or CD and learn to share with others.
By developing solid foundations of musical activities in a stress-free environment, children learn a lifelong love of music. Our teachers greatly appreciate the wonderful musical foundations these Early Childhood programs develop in children prior to learning an instrument. Musical study and performance is seen to be linked with above average academic performances and early involvement leads to a lifelong love and understanding of music, be it classical, jazz, country, folk, rock, rhythm & blues, heavy metal or rap. Music is one of the greatest gifts a parent or caregiver can give a child.
