Our son has been participating in MusicMakers since August 2017 at Rosewood Academy, and I am so glad that we signed him up. I especially appreciate the weekly notes from Ms. Kathy. She always shares positive information about our son's participation in the class. I would recommend this program to any parent looking to enhance their toddlers musical interests!

Report
A teacher for MusicMaker comes to our daycare in Dallas, and we have really enjoyed this experience. My child has been taking a weekly music lesson since she was 2, and she thoroughly enjoys it. I noticed just a few months after taking this class, my daughter was counting to the cha-cha! I can see how just learning music has improved her learning and counting. I have been really impressed. She has been taking this class for almost 2 years and still loves it. Taking this class once a week gives my daughter a break from the normal daycare routine, which I can tell makes her happy. I would highly recommend MusicMaker, especially for the toddlers.
