Starting with a chalice lighting, centering time, and exploring human values through story and song, this program, similar to a parent/child music class or music together, deepens the connections of families and young children with thematic weekly sessions that include instruments, arts and crafts, movement, games, and more. Families are given resources to deepen their familiarity with these songs and dances at home.
