TCU Music Together® Babies Class is designed for parents/caregivers and their
children 8 months or younger. All children benefit developmentally from early
exposure to music and movement.
Because the early months are so important, TCU Music Prep offers two options for
babies. Children 4 months or younger may attend for free with an older sibling
registered in a Mixed Ages Class. Children 8 months and younger may take a
special one-semester Babies Class designed to introduce both parent and child to
Music Together. (This class cannot be repeated).
Our Babies Class provides a safe and encouraging environment for parents to
learn about the musical development of their infant. Music and activities in the
class are designed with babies in mind, and families will have the opportunity
to enjoy these musical activities at home. Classes meet for 45 minutes once a
week for 12 weeks in the fall, 10 weeks in winter and spring, and 8 weeks in the
summer. Class size is a minimum of five babies and a maximum of 12 babies.

Music Together In-Person Mixed Ages 0 - 4 Years
This class is designed for parents/caregivers and their children. A child can
attend from birth through age 5 developing musically as they experience nine
different song collections with their families.
By grouping children of varying ages, along with their adult caregivers and
teachers, each child will discover the joyful world of music in a family
setting. This approach fosters natural, family-style learning where younger
children enjoy watching and imitating older children and adults, and the older
children learn by leading as examples for the younger children. Babies four
months and younger may attend the Mixed Ages class for free with their
registered older sibling.
Musical activities include singing, moving and dancing, chanting, listening,
observing, and exploring instruments. Each child participates at his or her own
developmental level. Every semester includes a new collection of music with a
wide variety of musical styles that both children and parents can enjoy.
Families enrolled in this class have the opportunity to share these musical
activities at home. This 45-minute Mixed Ages class will meet once a week for 12
weeks in the fall, 10 weeks in winter and spring, and 8 weeks in the summer.
Class size is a minimum of five children and a maximum of 12 children.
Materials include:
- One compact disc of songs that will be introduced in class
- A songbook for parents
