Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Children will be exposed to music and musical play activities and caregivers will learn about how using music can impact reading readiness.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The instructor offered a variety of activities including stories, songs, music, instruments, games and parenting tips. She was great about including everyone in the program from 6 months to 7 years. One of her parenting tips was to have an “utility song” for transition times like picking up your toys. Children and parents loved the program.
