Questions & AnswersQ1: Can I bring siblings to my child's class? A1: Please keep in mind that our program is structured and it requires full attention and participation of the parent/guardian while in class. Therefore, we recommend that you arrange childcare, i.e. bring a grandmother, grandfather, auntie, uncle, or a babysitter to watch over the toddling sibling. Q2: My child is old enough. Do I still need to come to each lesson and participate? A2: Yes. Our program is all about being exposed to all the good things in learning and to be enthusiastic about them. This love of learning, excitement, and encouragement to learn, come from us- adults- especially the parent figures. If your child sees that you are having so much fun in the class singing, practicing, and dancing, the child will realize that learning is fun and it's a good thing! Q3: Do we need a keyboard instrument at home to practice? A3: For the very young ones attending Munchkins Playgroups, Music Time! or Listen & Hear!; you do not need a keyboard instrument to practice. Your child will sing non-stop at home! For the older children, Do Re Mi, I Can Sing!, and I Can Play!, having a keyboard instrument is necessary, since homework practice is required. Q4: We won't be able to participate in some weeks or months. Can we pay for just those weeks that we attend? A4: Musical Munchkins is not a pay-per-visit type of program. Our program is a semester program with a specific curriculum for each age appropriate level, which takes carefully-thought-through planning. It takes consistency and steady attendance as a class to build skills and teach your munchkin(s) the value of learning and having fun with it. Therefore, we require that all registrants who sign up for regular semester program complete full semester tuition fee. |
