Class Descriptions for East Side Fall 2008

BROADWAY BABIES
AGES: (4-12 months) (1-2 years) (2&3 years)

Broadway sets the stage for this energetic, educational, and unique mommy & me class. In this interactive experience, children are introduced to a different Broadway show every week. As the four teachers begin to share what the show is about, children and moms are invited to participate. Lyrics are posted so that everyone can join in singing out show tunes. Props, costumes, and a multitude of musical instruments help develop the children's imagination, as well as musical and rhythmic skills. Guided by highly accredited teachers and pediatricians, our curriculum weaves educational activities such as pre-K development of motor skills, color and letter recognition, counting numbers and socialization, through the stories and songs of each musical. This class provides a venue where an adult can bond with their child while also meeting other adults who have young children. Come share the magic of Broadway with us!
