 Attention parents of babies! Join Katie's exciting new class designed specifically for you and your baby to enjoy together. Experience the innate musicality of babies as they coo, sing and rock to the beat right from birth!  Engaging your baby in musical activities supports speech development, physical literacy and brings forth plenty of smiles, giggles, wiggles and delighted coos. Connect and bond with your baby through singing and dancing together and also have a chance to meet fellow North Shore parents. Your instructor Katie, a local mom of four grown children from Horseshoe Bay, brings her expertise in raising children on the North Shore.  Just Babies Classes run on Centre on Fridays at the Gleneagles Community Centre.

Sing along as Katie leads your family through action songs, story songs, simple dance routines and small instrument play. Katie interweaves the use of props such as scarves, a parachute, puppets and storybooks to help keep children fascinated, engaged and always learning. Grown up participation is highly encouraged!  

 

This class runs on Fridays at the Gleneagles Community Centre.

"Both of my grandsons have participated in "Sing Along With Katie" It's a wonderful introduction to live music. Katie is warm, fun and very inclusive. The little ones are spellbound by her energy. Her choices on music, depending on the season and holidays, are perfect for engaging the children .Thank you Katie!"

"Katie is pure magic! I've taken all three of my kids to her music classes and I can't say enough about them. They are always fun, interactive and a great accessible way to introduce music to little ones. I love when I catch my kids singing along to her songs outside of class!"  Testimonial by Laura O.
