PARENT REVIEWS

My 15 month old daughter LOVES Kindermusik. She gets very excited from the moment we walk in the door. My daughter is a mover and a shaker and so this class fits her fun-going spirit perfectly! Plus it’s such a casual atmosphere. All children are accepted and appreciated for wherever they are at in their development. The CD’s are great. They make car trips, even the short ones, much more enjoyable. I really value the experiences my daughter and I have shared at Kindermusik.

My son and I began taking Kindermusik with Kim two years ago when my son was almost two. He was a shy boy when we started and now he is Kim's little helper. He loves the interactive play with instruments and the one-on-one time with mom. Kim is so good with all the children and makes everyone feel so comfortable. As a mom and self professed germ-a-phobe, I love how clean the studio is and how focused Kim is on keeping kids healthy with hand sanitizer and the Yucky Box.

Kindermusik with Kim has been a part of all three of my children's lives from the time they were 18 months old. While encouraging respect for ourselves and others to ensure the class works for everyone, Kim fosters great imagination and musicality in the form of song, dance and instrument exploration. It is a very welcoming environment in a bright and comfortable studio and Kim's enthusiasm is contagious. The At Home CDs have been extremely popular with my kids offering a wide variety of musical styles and "catchy" tunes - so much so that I even find myself singing along!

My daughter is 20 months old and we have participated in Kindermusik classes with Kim since she was 5 months old and we love it! During this time she learned to move to different kinds of music, to relax to music in “quiet time” (a very helpful trick when trying to calm an energetic toddler). She learned to listen to different sounds and different instruments and is learning to share toys and space with other kids and adults.

Classes are a great balance between moving, dancing, relaxing, participating and listening. Kids are free to be themselves – they can sit with their adults or move around the room, they are not forced to participate and can simply observe others if they choose to. Kim creates a fun and inviting atmosphere. My daughter smiles every time we arrive to the studio and she sees Miss Kim. There is a nice variety of music and we listen to “adult music” as well as kids’ songs. The CDs are enjoyable to listen to and they add a great value to the classes themselves.

I highly recommend Kindermusik with Kim. It’s not only Kindermusik, it is Kindermusik with Kim!

My children have been in Kindermusik since they were 6 months and 3 months. They are now almost 5 and 2. They both love it. Going to Kindermusik is the one activity that we do that nobody ever complains about! "We get to go see Miss Kim!" exclaimed with lots of smiles.

I have fairly outgoing children who pay attention most of the time but also love to wander and exploring has always been encouraged by Kim. The class has a pace that changes things around just enough to hold the attention of almost every child I have seen. Miss Kim makes learning the foundations of early music seem like play time and she is warm and loving with all children while providing a safe and creative environment. We love her!

Miss Kim did a birthday party at our home last year that was perfect! We still have all the materials from all the classes and they have held up great. I am always surprised at how nice the instruments are as well as the variety of music. Even as an adult my husband and I don't get sick of listening to them. We have never looked into any other music classes. We heard Kindermusik did such a nice job that we just went by reputation. Thank you Miss Kim for all you have added to our lives because I believe it makes a difference.

Kindermusik with Kim has been a fantastic experience for my two daughters. Kim’s class provides the perfect pace to keep my three and one year old’s continuous interests. They love the fun variety of songs, group sing along books, playful dancing, and using the many different age appropriate instruments and props.

During each session, Kim creatively involves the children with both individual and group participation. This really helps to give my very shy three year old a chance to shine as well as help my outgoing one year old to learn to be part of a group. Kim keeps musical activities fresh and adds special surprises that keep my children smiling and laughing. The songs heard in class that correlate with the take-home CD, give my three year old a chance to learn and independently sing the songs while in the car or at home.

Kim is an exceptional Kindermusik teacher because of her professionalism, beautiful voice, creative ideas, understanding the development of children, and above all her love for music, teaching, and our children.

Kindermusik with Kim is such a fun place to be! I truly believe that every educational experience starts with the teacher, and Miss Kim truly has a gift with children! They adore her and are excited to see her each week, and to participate in the fun musical activities that she has planned! Her love of music is reflected in all that she does during Kindermusik classes. We listen to the Kindermusik CD in the car all of the time...and always on the way to class as they are so excited! I find myself often singing the songs in my head throughout the day. :)

Kim provides a safe, comfortable, relaxing atmosphere that can be filled with instant energy and loud noise and movement, and then calm back down for another song or activity. She incorporates many bodily kinesthetic movements into each class....did you know you can practice ice skating using a paper plate under each foot?

From a parent perspective, Kim is a very kind and caring teacher, with a beautiful voice, a love for children, and understands what different children need. The communication is absolutely amazing...Bennett, my son, received a Valentine song from Miss Kim via my email. As you can imagine, he lit up so brightly and was very excited to have received his own message from Miss Kim. It was great dinner conversation! Kim is also very flexible and easygoing, making everything about the experience pleasant!

My son first enrolled in Kindermusik classes when he was an infant and continues to enjoy classes now as a toddler. In class he discovers new sounds, movements, and activities while encountering music and instruments from all over the world. He even communicates using sign language that he learned in class!

Miss Kim's passion for music and children clearly shows in her enthusiasm and interactions with students and families. She an excellent educator and she provides a welcoming and friendly environment for all. Children are comfortable to move around, socialize, and participate at their own pace. Kindermusik with Kim has become a meaningful and valuable part of my son's life!
