Musical Bumps for 3yrs+, Haynes West End

By Musical Bumps - Central Bedfordshire

Our pre-school classes are suitable for children from around 3yrs. The groups are kept smaller than the younger stages - usually no more than 8 children and are slightly shorter in length. A typical class develops specific musical skills and concepts including opportunities for solo singing and playing percussion - all through fun and games. Some basic music notation is also introduced through these games. Classes lay a solid foundation for future instrumental lessons, and help to prepare the children for their school days to come. The children have no idea they are doing anything but fun and play! The level of involvement of parents/carers is completely down to the child and what is best of them. Parents / Carers usually start off classes being actively involved but will participate less as time goes on.

Musical Bumps for 1yr+, Haynes West End

By Musical Bumps - Central Bedfordshire

This is a lively class as toddlers join in with actions, clapping, singing and dancing! Although each class follows a structure, we don’t expect children to sit still; we encourage them to respond to the music in the right way for them. Adults are encouraged to participate fully – children are more engaged and involved when they see their special adult joining in too! We sing songs for counting, songs that rhyme, action songs and singing games. There are puppets and percussion for each child every week.

Musical Bumps for Babies, Silsoe

By Musical Bumps - Central Bedfordshire

Gentle, relaxed classes for babies with soothing songs and lullabies! Our baby classes are specifically aimed at pre-mobile babies and are suitable from birth to approx 12 months old. Although the class has a gentle structure, it is absolutely baby-led so sleeping, noisy and hungry babies are all welcome. Our baby classes involve musical activities, rhymes and singing for around 35 minutes with an additional time for chat during the class (so approx 45mins in total), ending with cuddles and quiet lullabies. "We really love going to musical bumps! Alex is brilliant. It's a small friendly class and not overwhelming or overstimulating. It gives us lots of ideas for playing at home. Thank you Alex!". Mum of 6mth old.

Our classes for 2yrs+ are more structured than those for younger children, but learning is still very much through play! Puppets and props are an integral part of every session and are used to encourage children to join in and to use their singing voices. Within the carefully chosen games and songs, musical skills and concepts are introduced and practised using a wide variety of percussion instruments.
