Welcome to the Children's Music Box website!
Live piano playing! No tapes!
The Children’s Music Box classes in Finchley, North London, were established by Vicky Wolmuth in September 2000, and provide fun, stimulating and creative music sessions for pre-school children, with the piano. The classes are for children aged 3 months to 3 years old and 3 & 4 year olds, and last for 45 minutes per session. They take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Classes for 3 & 4 year olds reflect and complement the Foundation Stage music curriculum.
Main aims of the classes:
- To communicate an enjoyment of music from a very early age
- To provide a musical experience which is both fun and educational
- To help to develop good listening skills
- To help develop children’s language skills
- To help to develop a sense of rhythm
- To give parents and carers the experience of singing a wide range of songs which they can sing together at home
- To give the children the experience of playing a wide variety of hand-held percussion instruments, thus helping to develop their coordination
- To give the children the opportunity to observe and listen to live instrument playing
