Christian Music for Babies Through Age 5
We invite babies through children age 5, with a parent or other adult caregiver, to make music together! On the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month at 9 am, children from birth to age 5 are welcome to join in a special time of music and movement. We make music with instruments, sing, dance, do fingerplay, use scarves, and play with a rainbow parachute while singing "Alleluia"! We begin and close by singing songs which we personalize with the children's names. All instruments, etc. are provided but you are welcome to bring your own. Come play with our parachute, gathering drum, and shakers as we make joyful music together!
Masks are optional, and we will socially distance during our gathering.
