4 and 5 Year Olds
Kindermusik, a broad-based musical program for 4 and 5-year-old children, is offered at Ladue Chapel during the academic year. The classes emphasize process rather than performance and the curriculum carefully balances listening, vocal development, movement, and performing in instrumental ensemble. Classes are full of energy and fun!
Each week families receive suggestions of activities to do together to enhance their child’s classroom experience. The family is encouraged to participate in music-making at home, and the children are always excited about their homework!
Kindermusik classes are held in the Choir Room on Mondays from 1:30-2:45 p.m., normally beginning the second week in September. Children who are also enrolled in Ladue Chapel Nursery School’s Afternoon Enrichment Program are brought upstairs for class each Monday. Kindermusik for the Young Child is taught by Anne Peacock, licensed Kindermusik educator, along with an assistant. Kindermusik at Ladue Chapel is a natural stepping stone into our youngest choir, the Chorister Choir
A fee is required to cover the cost of materials. Included in the cost are a special Kindermusik bag, CD, glockenspiel, rhythm sticks, and learning materials for use at home and in class. Class size is limited. Ladue Chapel members have priority registration through selected dates, then open registration begins. Children will be accepted in order of the date the Kindermusik Registration Form is received. Contact Anne Peacock at 314-993-4771 x3122 or apeacock@laduechapel.org for more information.
