Our Programs
Programs To Broaden Everybody’s Cultural Horizons
and Cognitive Development
Our goal is the adaptation of the senses to new stimuli.
Music and languages open up minds, sounds travel through time and space to reveal that basic pentatonic melodies can be found in complete opposite parts of the world.
As different as we are, we are all connected!

“Learn French/Spanish Through Music” Language Classes
A multi sensory approach to language acquisition based on songs chosen to teach a selection of vocabulary and sentence structures. Visual, audio and tactile stimuli are all intertwined to allow your child to acquire the language in depth while having fun. This method has proven to be effective with children as young as 6 months old!
Instrument playing, sing-along games, finger-play and puppets are used to enhance comprehension through repetition while hearing and feeling the rhythm of the language.
