Announcing ~Denielle's Music Wheel
Beginner Music Class for children!

Happy to announce this first of many FUN Kids music classes from Denielle’s Musical Wheel!

Imagine sitting with your child on a plush carpet amongst other excited happy children all singing together, laughing, making music and learning at the same time!  This is what Ms. Denielle Basom, one of our favorite teachers here at MMP, is ready and waiting for! 

     She’s a definite kid magnet, trained in the Music Together style, and packs her classes with non stop laughter, singing and fun!  With rhythms and melody patterns, crazy songs and musical creativity, Denielle sings and strums her Ukulele thru class entrancing their little hearts with the type of good stuff that will nurture them for life!

The perfect setting of learning and gaining skills while having fun that encourages positive growth and better social skills.

Music does make a difference!

     Just like learning to walk and talk, a basic music competence can be achieved at a young age thru a play based and communal setting.  There’s nothing better!

Denielle brilliantly leads the musical exploration with different rhythms, shakey eggs, clave sticks, drums, an array of musical instruments and with call and response, scarf play, dance and other techniques. A class everyone will look forward to each week!

It’s all held in the show room at MMP on a big beautiful rug. Shoes off of course. …just how we like it! 

Parents are highly encouraged to sit in and participate because as their guardian and greatest teacher, it is important for your little one to see you fully engaged which in turn inspires them even more!

* Chairs will be available so don’t worry!

Arrive early in order to get your child settled with potty use/hand washing and all the excitement of MMP and seeing their new friends.

Ages 3 months to 5 years

Any and all parents/guardians, aunties/uncles, grandparents are encouraged to come along for free!

is easier to play than you think.

Only 3 or 4 strings, using just 2 fingers and a soft strum you’ll be making magical music!
