Rhythm Kids® (4-8 years)

Big kids play their djembe drums.
In a Rhythm Kids class, students explore rhythm by playing with music from around the world. Music Together® trained teachers lead dynamic classroom activities designed especially for early elementary children. The discovery continues at home with interactive Rhythm Kids videos, easily viewable in the Family Music Zone or the Music Together app. As they drum, sing, play instruments, and move to different rhythms, children naturally build musicality that helps them prepare for formal music lessons. Children learn complicated multicultural drumming patterns with a tried-and-true method, while developing new repertoire on percussion instruments, learning music-reading readiness, exploring movement and dance, deepening their vocal ability, and playing fun music games! Opportunities to solo, work in ensembles, and improvise can support social and listening skills, self-expression, and self-confidence. Grownups stay and play!

Families get a songbook and optional CD, digital access to the songbook and recording, drumming tutorials, and video play-alongs. Consider this the beginning step of instrument study! 

​Students should have their own djembe or hand drum for use at home and for use in class.

Hippo Song Collection

Join us for the Hippo Song Collection! Your child will have a great time drumming, singing, moving to new rhythms and engaging in and exploring other instruments, unique music activities, and music games especially designed for older children. This song collection, we'll explore the Hippo Rhythm with drumming patterns based on rhythms used in Gahu, the popular, recreational dance of the Ewe people of Ghana. We'll learn 20 songs, including “Gahu Ee” a call-and-response song from the Ewe people of Ghana, Togo, and Benin in Western Africa and the traditional Andean folksong, “La vicuñita,” often heard in Peru, Chile, Bolivia, and Argentina. The "Hip Hop Hippo" rap will let children break out their hip-hop dance moves!
