10 AM Kickoff Party for the new Music For Aardvarks Program
Children age 6 months to 4 years and their caregivers are invited to enjoy this lively, interactive program! The class is designed to build a child’s musical foundation and introduce babies and toddlers to the joy of participating in music through relevant and lively original songs in diverse contemporary musical styles, beloved traditional songs, instrument play, games, and more. 

“Participating in music, actively and at the earliest age possible, positively influences how children think, learn, and relate to others throughout their lives,” according to Pete Robbins, the new Director of Education at Indian Hill. “We are incredibly lucky to be able to bring a program like Music for Aardvarks exclusively to the Indian Hill community.” David Weinstone, program creator, will join Indian Hill’s Joey Pierog in leading a class, performing some of his original Aardvarks songs, and hosting a meet-and-greet with parents.

All Day: Hands-On Instrument Exploration

Thinking about private lessons? Try out piano, guitar, ukulele, flute, drums, violin, trumpet, saxophone, harp, voice and more!  Meet instructors, review class schedules, and ask questions. “Our goal is to find the best instrument and teacher-student match for each individual. Students may begin private lessons as early as five years old, and many of our beginners are of retirement age,” said Robbins. “It’s never too late to start!”
