Early Childhood Classes: Fall 2025

At Music House, we believe that it’s never too early to nurture a love for the performing arts. Our early childhood classes are thoughtfully designed to introduce young learners to the magical worlds of music, dance, and theater. With engaging, play-based activities led by experienced educators, students explore the arts in a warm and supportive environment. These classes provide the perfect foundation for developing essential skills like listening, self expression, coordination, and teamwork—while inspiring confidence and sparking joy.

Whether your little one is just starting to explore the arts or is communicating a strong interest in singing, dancing, acting, or instruments, Music House is a great place to stART.
