Music brings Children to Life!

Research has shown that, overall, music activities are ideal for the development of your growing child. Music immerses the child in language, evokes movement which fosters physical co-ordination, it stimulates the entire brain, develops listening skills which is the foremost necessity for learning, and just so much more! Remember that following through diligently with a music program has been known to raise your child's IQ! And, it improves their abilities in higher forms of thinking - maths, science, literature, etc.

MusikGarten provides you and your child with a safe environment to develop at your child's individual pace. The focus is towards the enjoyment of learning and no child is "forced" to participate. It is more important that you and your child are present, as simply being in the room means your child is learning.

Children can be enrolled as young as birth or at any point in time and follow the program through to approximately 9 years of age. Each class provides opportunities for you and your child to learn the basic fundamentals of music, through tonal and rhythm patterns. By the time your child has completed the MusikGarten Keyboard program they are fully capable of playing songs on the keyboard by ear, by heart and by sight (reading music). Many children also compose their own songs and all of them are able to perform in front of an audience (Great Confidence!).

Your child's development is of the utmost importance and each child is made to feel valued and intelligent, no matter what their capabilities are. Cherise's Little Music Studio is focused on the process of development and not on the performance! Learning and developing should always be enjoyable!
