Kindermusik Class

One of the gifts that we got John Turner for Christmas was an enrollment in Kindermusik classes for this semester. He has loved music and dancing since he was born! So we thought Kindermusik would be great for him. Boy were we right! He LOVES going to his class each week! One thing that makes this class so great is the amazing teacher! Mrs. Julie does a fantastic job of teaching them sounds, beats, rhythms, movements, etc.. She also has one beautiful voice!

Mrs. Julie has some very cool shaker instruments that the children get to experiement with each week. John Turner thinks he must carry at least two shakers at all times!

Book time is also a favorite part of Kindermusik for John Turner. He has now decided that he wants to read the books to himself instead of having us read them!

John Turner can't get to Mrs. Julie fast enough when he sees her getting out the drums! He has a drum at home and loves to play it too. He is getting good at tapping the drum to the beat of the music!


John Turner has learned many different movements since starting his Kindermusic class.

  • spinning around in a circle
  • marching
  • bending down and then popping up
  • jumping
  • tapping his hands on his thighs to music
  • bouncing
  • swaying
  • moving forwards and backwards

We are very glad we decided to enroll John Turner in this class. He has learned so much already and we have both made some great friends!

By the way, this class is quite a workout for Mommy!!! LOL!!

So glad to hear you are enjoying your classes. I have taught Kindermusik for 7 years now, and I never tire of hearing parents share what they have enjoyed in a class!
