Music Together of Decatur

Loved this text I got from a parent before our spring session wrapped up.

🌙 Unprompted. At bedtime.

Those full-body, imaginative moments — the ones where they're completely inside the play — are exactly what we're here for. And when the grown-ups they love are right there playing alongside them? It sticks with them. 💞

🏖 We still have room for you this summer! Come be a 🐸, a 👑, a 🐴, or a 🐱!

📣 Something new is happening at Music Together of Decatur.

✨ Our free monthly gathering for expectant parents has a new name: Lullabies for Expectant Parents — because dads and partners have always been a natural part of our Babies classes, and there's no reason Lullabies should be any different.

This Sunday at 2:15 pm, Kenya Engram — Music Together teacher, music therapist, and owner of Nurturing Notes — will facilitate a gentle, music-filled gathering for expecting moms, dads, and partners. 💜

It's free, it's beautiful, and there's still room for you. Reserve your free spot: https://musictogetherofdecatur.com/lullabies-for-expectant-parents.html .

🎶 Babies don't need to do anything in a Music Together class. They just need to be there — in your arms, in the room, taking it all in.

💜 And they are. Research shows that musical experiences in the first years of life lay the foundation for language, learning, and connection. Our Babies Only Preview is a beautiful place to start.

This message from a Music Together of Decatur mom made my whole day. 💞

🎶 The learning doesn't stop when you walk out the door. In fact, some of the most important music learning happens in the in-between moments, when no one is directing it. 🎶

🧠 This Music Together toddler is not just imitating. He's processing, organizing, and making meaning out of his experience.

🏠 When children play musically at home — singing to their stuffed animals, "teaching" them, recreating each moment of music class — they're working on integrating everything they've experienced.

💡 This is how children learn: by living it, again and again, until it's truly theirs. ✨ This is the foundation we're building together, and we are over the moon to get to do it with you!
