Music

At EKW Discovery Years, we recognize the importance of music in the lives of children. Music is a great way to engage young children because it is a natural and enjoyable part of their everyday lives.

Music is also a socially engaging way to learn, and it is especially appropriate for the developmental levels of young children. Music supports self-expression, cooperative play, creativity, emotional well-being, and development of social, cognitive, communication, and motor skills. Music and singing are a fun and effective way to help young children learn.

Jamming for Juniors is the weekly music program that we offer to our preschool classes at no additional cost. It includes a variety of mind-expanding activities that will be with them all of their lives.
