 Kindermusik Maestro

  Why Kindermusik at JWSM?
Since 1991 our licensed, trained educators have served the children and families of our community.  In 2003 we achieved Maestro status for exceptional service by Kindermusik  International.  This places us in the top 5% of the Kindermusik programs in the nation!!

In every class, you'll witness your child's developmental evolution in language skills, literacy, listening, problem solving, social skills, self-esteem, and musicality. And it happens within a nurturing environment-full of energy, imagination, music, dancing, and playful delight.

Kindermusik provides the time and tools to help bring the power of music into your home and your child's life forever. An integral part of every Kindermusik program, your Kindermusik At-Home Materials include the highest-quality music CDs, creative activities, beautifully illustrated children's books, and specially designed instruments-created to complement the music and Kindermusik classroom experience.

By adding new concepts and challenges along the way, each age-appropriate program acts as a stepping stone to the next--paving the way to a musical journey that can last five magnificent, musical years.

    Building the child's self-esteem

Listening and turn-taking encourage blossoming social skills.

  • Educates you about the interactive nature of the total development of your child through music, movement and literacy.
  • Promotes joyful music making as a community.
