A friendly, small group of 2 to 4 year olds, accompanied by a parent or caregiver. Each session includes a musical circle time with songs, instruments, poems, and playful movement, followed by delightful projects introducing a variety of art materials. The morning closes with a song and story imaginatively told and accompanied by lovely puppets and music. This class is a gentle, peaceful introduction to the Arts by a very experienced, artistic Waldorf Kindergarten teacher who is also trained as an Orff music teacher and art therapist. Currently our pre-school program (Cozy Babes) takes place Thursday mornings, 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 noon at Waterside Arts Studios, finishing Tuesday, February 19, 2013. Our Spring Program (Little Sprouts), from April 18 to June 6, 2013, will take place outdoors in our beautiful garden by the river. |
