FAMILY DANCE | AGES WALKING – 5 YEARS OLD
When children experience dance and music within a joyful community, it creates a foundation for budding artists and beautiful human beings. We’ll playfully explore movement and music through songs, rhymes, dances, and the imagination. The adults and older children serve as role models for the younger children who follow along in their own developmentally appropriate way. Ms. Kris believes that artistry, like language, is best taught through immersion in the early years.
