NEW music and activities starting this week!

 

Infant – 18 months

Busy Days

Busy Days: Set your baby’s day to classical music. Each lesson features new activities and songs you can sing for all the places you go together–the store, the playground, the doctor, and more.
Peek-A-Boo, I Love You: In five lessons, learn new songs, lullabies, & ways to say “I love you” using touch, Mother Goose rhymes, literature books, & chants.

1.5 – 3.5 years

Catch a case of the giggles. Listen to silly sounds, move in silly ways, and tickle, laugh, and play. You’re about to get Silly All Over!

5littlemonkeysAt home, enjoy the musical eBook, 5 Little Monkeys. This classic children’s book is excellent for introducing early mathematics skills! The National Research Council (2009) identified four critical mathematics strands for young students, and concluded that they are predictive of later math success, and in fact of academic success in general.

Using the at-home resources provided, you and your child will be able to:

  • Watch and imitate a video of Silly Animals
  • Act silly while doing the “Windshield Wiper Dance”
  • Figure out what’s wrong. Cats don’t say woof!
  • And more!

3 – 5 years and Familes (mixed ages 0 – 7)

Get ready for lots of ribbity-hopping, trumpety-stomping, and oinkity-rolling! Animals a-Dancing uses the movements and sounds of our favorite animals to emphasize all the movements and sounds your child can make!

At home, spend time with your child reinforcing their classroom experience through stories, songs, and at-home activities that focus on developing your child’s self-awareness.

You and your child will be able to:

  • animalsadancinAdd 22 great songs and listening sounds to your personal music library
  • Enjoy the eBook, Frog Went a-Dancing and join Little Frog as he searches for the perfect dancing song
  • Have a morning sing-along
  • Make dancing animal puppets

And much more!

Or join us at St. Alcuin for a week-long camp for ages 3-5 years!

Sometimes when I look out over my classes as they hop, sing, bounce and laugh together, I pause to think about how I got there.  How did I find myself standing in a big room with a squishy floor beneath my feet and a pink scarf wrapped around my shoulders like butterfly wings.  In college, [...] Read more
