2010 Palm Sunday Choir

 
Musikgarten is now here at FPC!
 

Musikgarten began this September, on Monday and Thursday mornings. Musikgarten is a music and motion class for children from newborn to 3-1/2 years and their parent. The “Family Music for Babies” class teaches parents how to play musically with their baby and the “Family Music for Toddlers” includes singing, chanting, moving, dancing, listening, and playing simple instruments.
 
The classes carry a supply fee for each child, to cover the cost of a CD, a family activity guide and musical instruments. For more information please click on this link. Musikgarten.htm
