Musical Minis – Buckinghamshire and South Northants

Musical Minis Buckinghamshire and South Northants was established in 2003.

The sessions are designed for children from birth – 4 years.

We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) – the same framework as nurseries and preschools, working on the key areas of a child’s development including co-ordination, speech, social and interpersonal skills, concentration and listening skills, all in a very relaxed and informal setting. The children learn through music and movement, having fun at the same time, as do the parents/carers!

Babies as young as a couple of weeks old join our classes which have been endorsed by Health Professional as a great aid for a child’s development. Of course a baby would get something totally different out of the sessions than a toddler or pre-schooler. Babies who start attending sessions at a young age show very early signs of development in terms of fine motor skills and co-ordination as well as the sensory experience of the sights and sounds of a lively music-based class. Toddlers and pre-schoolers develop their language through singing and stories, creativity through out free-play with a range of instruments and importantly, social skills through mixing with other children.

Our mixed age classes allow for children to watch and learn from others, practice important social skills such as sharing and turn-taking, allow older children to model skills to younger children and develop a sense of leadership. It also means that parents can bring along siblings to the same class and enjoy time together as a family.

Payment is made in advance, termly at the cost of £6.00 per 45 minute session (£4.00 for siblings over 6 months of age). If you wish to come and see what the class is about then you are welcome to attend a trial session costing £6.00, before you decide to commit.  Places are limited and allocated on a first come first served basis, booked via the ‘Book you place’ tab.

There is a one-off membership fee of £10.00 per child that includes a T-shirt or bib, Musical Minis App and also covers insurance for your child. You would never pay this again, even if your child stopped classes for a term and then returned after that.

We would love to welcome you along to our classes. Please fee free to contact me if you have any questions.
