In this unique early childhood music program, Wiggleworms teachers lead grownups and children in musical play with traditional and original songs while accompanying the class on acoustic guitar, autoharp or ukulele. Children sing, dance, learn finger plays and story songs, and explore rhythm instruments especially designed for little hands. Early childhood is the perfect time for exposing children to these significant experiences with the language of music. Classes are designed for developmental age groups and activities expand as the child grows. Classes are limited to 12 children with their parent or caregiver and are 45 minutes long.

Hyde Park Art Center, 5020 S. Cornell Ave., Chicago. January 9th through April 28th, Friday and Saturday mornings. For additional information, check out Wiggleworms at oldtownschool.org or call 773-728-6000 including classroom guidelines. Download classroom guidelines here.
