Music Together Jam Bay

This session is only six short weeks, so we have a lot of music to pack in!:) HIGHLIGHTS SO FAR: Monday night is full with Daddies and that is so awesome! What a great thing for these little ones to see and remember their dads making music right along with them. Tuesday morning is one full class! But we are loving all the mamas and babies! Remember, you can always feel free to make up a class that you must miss at any of my other classes including Wednesday morning in Liberty Lake, where we have a truly intergenerational experience with all the grandmas that join us! Happy Week! Melinda

What fun we had during the last week of classes! In case you all are wondering what exactly was that song you heard during the Bubbles (you know, the one that made you remember in that instant why you love your child so very much...)...well, that was Isreal Kamakawiwo' (see his bio ) singing a mix of Somewhere Over the Rainbow and What a Wonderful World. Several years ago, the Volkswagon folks did a great commercial actually of a little person in his carseat, riding along...blowing bubbles...just enjoying life! Children are incredible reminders to us to do just that...ENJOY LIFE! Have a great summer if I don't see you for Summer Session...which by the way starts the week of July 16th! Register online now!

I have to say that breaking a guitar string while jamming with my Monday class on "This Train" was way cool!!!! That makes me kinda like a Rock Star, ya? Only two weeks of Spring classes left...I've already planned my last session's tearjerkers as I have loved my classes this semester and hope all the mamas (and two da-das, and a grandma and a grandpa) and all the little ones have loved them too!:)

Instead of just separating and sanitizing instruments that have been mouthed by our little babies, I've decided to throw them all in together after class and sanitize them all, since toddler hands can be pretty germy, too! So, just an FYI, Mamas!!!:)

People are already asking about Summer Session, so I need to decide some dates:) I'll add an evening class on the South Hill as well...the days get longer and the warm light sticks around...(in the real South, as in Georgia and North Carolina, the warm light actually does stick to you-hot and humid!) Stay Tuned for Summer Pre-Registration!

Spring Classes have begun with the Music Together Tambourine Collection! The first two weeks we were getting used to each other while learning some of the more spring-y songs of the collection. The next several weeks, we'll venture into the rest of the collection before returning to some of our favorites! While practicing "See the Pony Galloping", my Benny has really started approximating the words ALL TIRED OUT! Complete with a huge smile on his face!
