This drop-in bilingual music class introduces babies and toddlers to Spanish and music through singing and musical play. Parents and caregivers join their children to sing the songs from Mexico and other parts of Latin America, as well as Spanish language translations of well loved English language children’s songs. The teacher will suggest and model movements and the use of percussion instruments to enable children and their families to interact using instruments and toys available in their own homes, and will lead musical games using appropriate props such as stuffed animals and puppets. Guest musicians may accompany the teacher on a variety of instruments over the course of the summer. Prior knowledge of Spanish is not necessary. More than one adult can attend with a registered child. Class is held in Spanish and English.

This activity is a good companion to Community Music Center’s Music for Children.
