EXPOSURE: Music Exposure for Infants (birth - 12 months)

Capacity: 10 infants per class
*Parental attendance required and participation is encouraged

This class is designed to create a musical environment for babies to experience through sound, sight and touch. Children absorb music from the time their auditory system develops in their mother’s womb. It is never too early to introduce your infant to music. Exposure to music has been shown to benefit a child’s social and cognitive development from the time they are born. In this class, parents and caretakers have the opportunity to share a musical space with their baby in an explorative manner. The instructor will play or sing songs, musically interact with each baby, and introduce a variety of musical sounds and instruments. Information will also be provided throughout the term that pertains to current research in early childhood music education.
