Rhythm Kids® 
Ages 4.5-8

Rhythm Kids® follows through on the Music Together® vision to help children complete the pathway of early childhood music development from birth through age 8. As part of the Rhythm Kids experience, children and their grownups can enjoy drumming play and practice sessions at home with the help of online play-along videos featuring Rhythm Kids creator Tom Foote. 

Classes are for children in Kindergarten through second grade (ages 4.5 through 8) and include: 

  • Weekly 40-45 minute classes

  • Animal Collection Songbook and CDs each semester

  • Access to online video tutorials and play-alongs

Children will:  

  • Learn, create, discover and explore music, movement and drumming

  • Enjoy age-appropriate ways to play rhythm instruments (shakers, tambourines, etc.)

  • Explore traditional drumming patterns through animal names and movements

  • Experience drumming, song and dance from around the world (Mali, Puerto Rico, Turkey, etc.)

  • Find new ways to connect mind, body and voice through rhythm

  • Develop skill in improvising, soloing, conducting, composition and improvisation

  • Participate in active musical games that are both enriching and totally fun!

*Students should have their own djembe drum for use at home.
