Music Classes for Toddlers and Babies: Rockness Music

Live Music. Real Musicians!

Fun, Educational, and Interactive Music Classes for Babies and Toddlers!

What to expect from our music classes?

At Rockness Music, we offer music classes for toddlers and babies that ignite their love for music through live performances and interactive experiences. Our engaging, energetic classes teach the children to drum, dance, and sing along as part of the band in a fun, inclusive environment. Led by professional musicians, these classes are designed to develop early music skills while creating unforgettable memories for you and your child.

Join us for weekly 45-minute sessions that provide a musical adventure where toddlers and babies participate in interactive songs, dance, and play with props and instruments—all while spending quality time with their favorite grown-up.

Boost Early Learning with Fun, Engaging Music Classes

Studies show that exposure to music during early childhood sharpens math and literacy skills  — but learning doesn’t have to be boring! That’s where our kids’ music classes come in. Our methods combine fun and education, creating a memorable, interactive musical experience that helps young minds grow.

What to Expect

Every class is a show, and everyone is in the band.

Our research-based curriculum, activities, and song selection vary weekly to engage young children at every stage of development.

Each week, we use a variety of materials perfect for babies and toddlers: shakers, dancing ribbons, drums, puppets, and a selection of instruments that we explore during our instrument show-n-tell.

Our imaginations are stimulated every class with various songs that encourage dramatic play and dance, helping toddlers build coordination and confidence. Each week, we embark on a different adventure during our Adventure Song – a true highlight for the children, from babies bouncing along to toddlers leading the way!

Drumming

Beat and rhythm are the essential building blocks of musical performance and an integral part of the Rockness Music experience. Babies and toddlers love feeling the rhythm as they drum, count, and sing. Each child is given individual drums and sticks and encouraged to follow along in a way that suits their age and abilities.

Instrument Show & Tell

Every week, babies and toddlers discover a new, intriguing instrument – part of our mystery discovery instrument series. Everyone has an opportunity to explore and play the instrument during our show-n-tell circle time. We even add a touch of preschool science (STEM) as we learn about the shapes, colors, and sounds of the instruments, making music an early learning adventure!
