This three-year program solves the problem that a child is most ready to learn music at an early age, but their fingers and letter skills are not yet ready. Throughout the Let’s Play Music program, solfege, chord recognition, and sight reading are strategically taught through games and play. Learn more about each semester below.

“I had heard great things about the program and decided to enroll my youngest. Oh, how I wish my older kids had had this program! He has learned SO much. As we are finishing up his 3rd year, I can honestly say I had no idea how much he would learn and be able to do! What a wonderful experience it has been!” – C.M.
Parent and Family Time Commitment
Support at home is vital to your student’s success in Let’s Play Music. A parent or caregiver models the joy of music in class and at home. Providing practice structure at home and listening to the class albums is essential to their musical development.
