Every Wednesday: New 45-minute classes have started at Fort
Leavenworth, KS, in the aerobics room at Gruber Gym.

  • 11:30-12:15 - Baby Beats (up to 18 months) is a wonderful time to
    play stimulating games with your little one, using music to
    encourage responses and begin using sign language.  You will learn
    how important music is to your baby’s development and how you can
    continue music activities at home.

  • 2:15-3:00 - Toddler Tunes (18-36 months) is a time to enjoy that
    wonderful little person who is soaking up everything, as fast as it is
    presented.  Explore the new world of sounds, rhythms, instruments,
    movement and singing while helping your child attain the skills
    needed for future learning.  Expand your knowledge of signing with
    your child to encourage speech development.

  • 1:15- 2:00 - Music Makers (3-5 years) provides the opportunity to
    explore the creation of original music by introducing the use of
    rhythm, new instruments and working together to become a “band”.  
    During all the fun, skills needed for success in academic and social
    settings will be improved.

  • 3:30-4:15 - Happy Harmonics (5-8 years) will be the introduction of
    singing as a group, developing skills of listening, working together,
    following instructions and paying attention.  Of course, the great
    part is that everyone is having so much fun they don’t realize that
    they are learning and practicing skills that will improve their ability
    to learn.
