Greetings!

The holidays are fast approaching and whether you celebrate with a tree, a menorah, or Kwanza candles, we have something for you!

The holiday season can be a very stressful time for you and a very confusing one for your child. With holiday parties, lack of time to spend with our little ones, changing schedules, and an overwhelming amount of external stimuli, children often become overwhelmed and over stimulated, leading to tantrums and holiday meltdowns.

So, take a deep breath, take off your shoes and unwind with us while enjoying the music of the season and developing a  stronger bond with your child. In this time of chaos, your child will definitely look forward to that 45 minutes of focused attention, not to mention the predictability of the weekly class when everything around them is changing.  And you can improve their music, listening, communication, social skills, and so much more in the process!

If that is not reason enough, we are offering a free Kindermusik CD with enrollment. This is our gift to you, for taking time out of your busy schedule to be with us this holiday season. So get those enrollments in because this offer is for a limited time only.

In-studio registration begins: Monday, November 2nd
On-line registration begins: Wednesday November 11th
For Holiday Class Schedule, Read On!

P.S. If you are interested in our 1-day "Sing, Create & Play" classes, information will follow later today for those. Winter session starts January 11th, information for this session will also be in a separate email this week.

Holiday Signing Classes Holly

Signing Smart - Holiday Play class- 6mos - 3yrs
The Signing Smart Holiday Play Class Series is for families who sign with their babies and are looking for a fun-filled way to ring in the winter holiday season. These parent-child classes include engaging activities and songs that incorporate ASL signs that are related to holiday and winter themes from Thanksgiving through Christmas Day. From new foods your child is eating to relatives he or she sees but once a year, the classes do more than teach families the signs for the holidays themselves - they give you a way to communicate with your child about all the wondrous aspects of the season. In the classes you will learn how to use Signing Smart to lighten the pressures of the holidays, as well as how to understand and experience this magical and confusing time of year from your child's perspective. As in the Beginner and Intermediate Programs, we integrate signs into gross motor play, large and small group activities, singing, and much more.  The $25 material fee includes: The Holiday Handbook and a Diaper Bag Dictionary featuring Year-Round Holiday Signs.
