“Cities! Busy Places-Friendly Faces” transports your child into a Kindermusik city where ordinary sounds and sights on the street make a musical ensemble. People shuffle their feet to a 4/4 beat. Street musicians serenade and sing. Clock towers boom, bellow and ring. You and your class will co-create a city that’s familiar, yet like no other. Using Kindermusik’s visual tools and home activities, children will transform the classroom, build a city out of handcrafted “buildings”, and walk down sidewalks made of masking tape and freezer paper. Imagine that!
