Kindermusik with Kat is proud to bring ABC Music & Me to Prodigy Learning Centers.

ABC Music & Me, an award-winning enrichment (early literacy and language) program for 2 to 6 year olds, was designed for early childhood learning centers. ABC Music & Me is a research-based language and early literacy program built around music. ABC Music & Me helps develop pre-literacy and language skills through a child’s most-loved rituals: music and storytime.
ABC Music & Me supports the early childhood standards and requirements for “high quality programs” as defined by the National Institute for Early Education. Plus for the older age group, ABC Music & Me aligns with pre-K national and state standards.

Unit Descriptions:

Toddlers, Twos & Threes

1st unit (Oct 31-Nov 22) - Colors & Shapes on the Farm
In this unit, we will take a trip to the farm and encounter colors as shapes as we explore haystacks and hayrides, barns, and lots (and lots) of animals. A musical storytime with Jenny Jenkins will wrap it all together as the farm animals suggest their favorite colors for Jenny to wear.

Home Kit: Box shaker, Home CD and magazine-style Family Guide (includes the class story Jenny Jenkins)

2nd unit (Nov 28-Dec 16) – Marvelous Me
This month we’ll cover pattern games and body awareness from head to toe. In class we’ll listen for patterns and repeated phrases in the music, which develops your child’s early math skills and self-esteem. When you play the same pattern seeking games at home that we played in class, your toddler’s confidence and skill building will grow.

Home Kit: Wooden clacker, Home CD and magazine-style Family Guide (includes the class story Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes)

Threes, Fours & Fives

1st unit (Oct 31-Nov 22) – Carnival of Music
This month’s story features Barley Bear and his day-long quest to find a piece of shoo-fly pie at the fair. In class we’ll read about Barley and talk about his willingness to wait and be patient in the middle of the fun fair distractions. At home, your Home Kit includes more activities to help your child feel comfortable in group-play and group-learning situations.

Home Kit: Egg shaker, Home CD, and magazine-style Family Guide (includes the class story Shoofly Pie)

2nd unit (Nov 28-Dec 16) – Let's Play
All the ways you play—at home, in the school yard, during your family time together—is this month’s theme. In class we’ll play “Follow the Leader” and other playground games to help your toddler develop listening and singing skills while strengthening movement and hand-eye coordination. In your Home Kit, find more activities, songs, and games you can do together to play and learn at home, too.

Home Kit: Mini Tambourine, Home CD, and magazine-style Family Guide (includes the class story Golden Bear)
