Program Description

Join us for a joyful and engaging parent/child interactive program designed to spark creativity, coordination, and connection through music and music! Especially created for little ones from 1-3, this experience encourages toddlers to explore rhythm, dance, and sound in a playful nurturing environment. With hands-on activities, catchy songs, and simple movements, each session promotes early development while strengthening the bond between parent and child.
