Judy's Music

Children and grown-ups are invited to interact with recordings of the world's best music, including children's melodies, classical, jazz, and world music. 

Babies absorb the music through all their senses, moving with the help of adults until they are ready to move to the music independently.

 

Toddlers, twos and threes learn how to keep a beat, move with the music, experience the emotional content and imagery associated with music, and become creatively involved in the art of music making and movement/dance.

 

The fun of music making is enhanced with scarves, puppets and a broad range of instruments, including violin, banjo, guitar, keyboard, world instruments, and more.

 

Part of each class will be devoted to physical activity on professional equipment designed for this age group.

 

With the expert guidance of a kind, loving, and caring teachers, children acquire skills and a love of learning that can last a lifetime.

Since 2002, the Enchanted Garden’s nurturing, experienced teachers have eased children’s delicate transition into a school setting. The classroom was designed by Jim Henson artist Tim Clarke to spark children’s imagination and creativity. Children do musical activities, art projects, hear stories from around the world, and learn skills needed for preschool. They play with educational toys, draw at easels, climb on indoor playground equipment and more. Class size is limited to 8, allowing the teachers to focus on each child’s needs and interests. There is a balance between structured and unstructured activities so that children can experience the joy of discovery and become independent learners. Toilet training not required.  Adjustments to activities, enhanced cleaning, teachers wearing masks and other procedures will be followed to help keep children safe.

 

Tuition:

$395 per half year for each day.

LimeLight Theater Workshop at the Enchanted Garden (Grades 3-8)

This Fall, LimeLight Theater presents its opening debut at the Enchanted Garden. In this workshop, we will choose a piece of literature or a play that can be re-storied, re-worked, and deconstructed in ways that acknowledge the stages young people experience as they grow. 

 

Music, movement, singing as well as other experimental theater choices will be used to create a final performance at the Enchanted Garden. All members of the theater company will participate.

 

Beyond being exhilarating and fun, theater can be a rewarding social experience. Participants will be given opportunities to try on roles and practice skills that embrace individual creativity and encourage a sense of community through significant interpersonal connections.

 

Theater can also build self-confidence rapidly through improvisational body work, creative re-imagining using cognitive skills, and developing an adventurous spirit by working with others in a group setting over a period of time. Enhancing individual strengths allows each student to benefit from the rewards that come through creation and achievement.

 

Come join the fun!
