Sign and Sing
Kindermusik is a music & movement program unlike any other. Each program is specifically designed to further the development of your child in every way, through music. Every activity we do in our music class has a purpose and we strive to educate you on what that purpose is. After all, you, as the parent, are the single most important teacher your child will ever know. So our job, as Kindermusik educators, is to provide you with as many tools as we can to help you teach your child. That’s why all of our music classes also include home materials. To make it easy for you to continue using the tools learned in class at home.

Babies can understand so much more than they are able to communicate. And you know how frustrating communication can be for both you and baby before baby is physically able to talk. Signing can alleviate much of that frustration and help your baby develop a better understanding of the world. In fact, most signing babies actually begin speaking sooner than non-signing babies! In our Sign & Sing class, you will learn how to incorporate signs into your daily life in an easy, step-by-step way.

What you’ll experience in class:
- You’ll play, sign, and sing. Using everyday items in engaging small and large group activities, we’ll sing songs and practice the sign as we say the words, play with toys, and help her learn both the spoken word and the sign.
- Expert advice. You’ll learn to spot your baby’s most “teachable moments” and the sign language teaching methods of the experts. Plus you’ll learn to recognize and respond to your child’s versions of signs.
- Communication through sign language. When your child is chasing a bubble or asking for the ball, you’ll make the sign for it and say the word. So she has the ways to associate the word with the object: she holds the ball, she hears you say the word, and she sees you make the sign.
Enrollment includes:
- Developmentally appropriate American Sign language curriculum for parents and hearing children, ages 6 months to 3 years
- 5 to 10 week semester
