Free Kindermusik Classes and Early Enrollment Deadline August 1st! - Sunday, July 27, 2008

Hello friends! The summer is quickly drawing to a close, and I wanted to remind you that we're taking enrollments for the Kindermusik Fall Semester. If you register and pay your deposit by August 1, you'll receive $20 off your tuition for the semester as an early enrollment bonus! And don't forget, younger siblings and children of students enrolled in private lessons get a 50% discount on Kindermusik tuition. Let me know if you need me to send you a registration form, or you can register over the phone, or at the front desk or online.

I'll be hosting free Kindermusik classes on July 30th (for those wishing to see what a class is like and still get that early bird special!) and again from August 2-16th during the International Demo Days promotion with Kindermusik International. Please check the schedule or ask Ms. Tabby for class availability. If you'd like me to schedule a custom demonstration class for you and 2 friends, please don't hesitate to call me at 713-306-4023 and I'll be happy to do that.

I know a lot of you would love to participate in Kindermusik, but it is financially a stretch right now. Don't let this tough time interfere with enhancing your child's development! Here are some creative ways to help pay for the class:

1. Gift certificates are always available! Have grandma or grandpa, aunts and uncles, etc. contact me for any sized amount! Family and friends love to help with Kindermusik, especially when our children already have so many toys!
2. Sign up by AUGUST 1 to get that $20 early bird discount on tuition!
3. Bring a friend to Kindermusik, and if they sign up, you will receive $10.00 off of tuition up to $30.00!
4. Make EVERY DOLLAR count with Kindermusik! Other programs are fun, but Kindermusik is fun AND educational. At just $12.00 a class, this is the best value per dollar that you will find for your child. Here is what the experts say...
"Children participating in Kindermusik improved 28 – 37 percentile points in their standard intelligence tests over children without Kindermusik." -Sam Houston State University Study – May 1998.
"Four-year-olds exposed to Kindermusik have better self-control than children with less Kindermusik history." - George Mason University Study – May 2005.

5. Scholarships are available through private donors and the Ruth D. Anderson Children's fund. I have already applied for funding from the RDACF at Kindermusik International, because I want every child to be able to participate in this program. I donated my time and energy so several families could participate last semester for only the cost of materials. If you want to donate to this scholarship fund, please contact me!

I hope these ideas are helpful for you. I value your commitment to Kindermusik, and to supporting local music programs. If you have any other questions or concerns, or want to know which class will be best for your child, please contact me! My schedule is up and running on the website! I have classes for each age group from infants, toddlers and pre-schoolers to children from 5-7 years. Have a great rest of the summer, and I look forward to being together again beginning September 1st!

Musically,
Ms. Tabby

Didjeridoo and drums! - Saturday, July 26, 2008

Here's a neat musical excerpt that I heard through the grapevine. Merri over at Masterworks Studios in Decatur, GA is a fellow Kindermusik educator and Blogger. She shared a really awesome YouTube video of a man named Jono Callow playing a variety of percussion instruments from around the world, as well as a "slide didjeridoo" from Australia. He creates a unique one-man-band with all these instruments, and I know you will enjoy this video!



My husband plays world percussion and didjeridoo, so we're quite familiar with all these strange noises at our house, but I've never seen them combined in quite this way. Thanks for bringing it to my attention, Merri!

Kindermusik photos from last weekend - Monday, July 14, 2008

As part of a national campaign with Babytalk magazine and Babies"R"Us, I held 3 free demonstration classes at the Friendswood store on Saturday, July 12. It was so much fun! I can't wait to do it again next year. Thank you to everyone who helped and all who attended. I hope we'll see you in class again soon!

Brittany came to help me with the event, and she snapped some photos during the classes. Here are a few of them for you to check out (click the photo to open the album)

Remember, early enrollment is due no later than August 1 if you want to save $20 on tuition! You can register online under 'Classes> Fall' on our Kindermusik website.
