WHAT IS "MUSIC FOR AARDVARKS??
A Simple Philosophy
Provided with a stimulating and fertile musical environment, positive role models, gentle guidance and encouragement, young children will have enriching and vital musical experiences that help them gain a sense of themselves and a connection to the world they live in.
Goals and Expectations
A Music for Aardvarks and Other Mammals class is a place where children can experience music in a rich variety of ways. Whether actively participating or simply listening and watching, children are learning in ways that are right for them as individuals, and at their own pace. A more instructional approach, with a focus on specific results, is not only age inappropriate, but totally unnecessary for their musical development. Exposure to musical experiences, guidance and parental modeling allows young children to explore and learn on their own without the anxiety of others expectations..
Parents as Models
Parent/caregiver participation in class activities is strongly encouraged. Whether you consider yourself to be musically inclined, or someone who can't carry a tune to save your life, is of little importance when it comes to the positive impact your participation will have on your child. Your willingness and enthusiasm are invaluable assets to the group as a whole, and exemplify for your child that joining in is not about "performing" but having fun!

ADAM's AARDVARKS (ALL ONLINE)
Fall Session Online Zoom Classes
Start October 7th!
NO REGISTRATION
Just email Adam at info@musicforsunsetpark.com
The online Zoom classes are Wednesdays at 10am and 11:30am. There’s no commitment to sign up for the session. All I’m asking is $10 per family per class, which would be paid via Venmo or PayPal. I’ll send a download code for the “Taxi” CD for families who are attending the classes. I'll send out the Zoom invitations a couple of days before each week’s classes. It’s going to be a fluid session, with people coming in and out, so I’m just trying to make the whole thing easy and
flexible for families and kids.
