Boston Aardvarks Children's Music Classes Review and Giveaway
One of the most wonderful things I did with my daughter Brynn was to sign her up for a children's music class when she was 6 months old. I remember bringing her into the first class in her car seat carrier and she couldn't even sit up yet, so she just sat there in her carrier and watched the rest of us dance and sing around. I wondered what in the world she could be getting out of it... Was this class for me or her?
But we continued to go once a week, and soon she was sitting up and laughing and clapping, and then she was crawling and playing with the musical instruments and colorful handkerchiefs, and before long she was walking and dancing and interacting with all of the other kids in the class.
And now she is 2 years and 9 months old and we still go faithfully once a week and now it is Reese that comes in a carrier. Brynn now knows the words to every single song, she talks all week about going to music class, and each time we get into the car she asks me to turn on her music CD before I can even put the keys in the ignition. She makes up her own songs for everything and she loves to make any toy into a musical instrument. She has a great sense of rhythm and loves to dance. I truly attribute all of these wonderful creative abilities and interests to bringing her to a children's music class and starting her so young. She may have just been sitting there in the beginning, but she took in and absorbed every bit.

Reese arrives on the music class scene :)
If you are a parent of a child under 6, you probably know all about Nick Jr. (formerly Noggin) and if you feel like I do sometimes, you know too much! :) I think I know more songs by The Laurie Berkner Band, The Fresh Beat Band and other various children's artists than I do when I turn on 92.9. "I got, I got, I got, I got, you got, you got, you got, you got, we got, we got, we got, we got LOCO LEGS..."
One of these fabulous artists that is featured on Nick Jr. is David Weinstone. You know "Taxi, taxi, riding in the back seat. Roll the windows up, roll the windows down. Put the money in the slot. See you later, thanks a lot. Sure beats walking 'round town." Brynn and I love that song! Did you know that David Weinstone has his own children's music program?
Music for Aardvarks and Other Mammals is a children's music program that was started by David Weinstone in 1997 in Brooklyn, New York. It is a fabulous program that is based on songs written by David Weinstone himself, that include all genres of music. What I love about this program is that it is relaxed, informal and most of all super fun! The songs are upbeat and fun to sing, and sometimes even silly! They are about things that kids can understand and actually relate to... Things that kids want to sing about!
The coolest part is that David Weinstone has paired up with musical talents from other cities and lucky for those of us who live in Massachusetts, there are Boston Aardvarks classes right here in Natick, Newton and Needham! Stacey Peasley, of Stacey Peasley Children's Music, is the incredibly fun, energetic and engaging teacher of the Boston "chapter." Stacey is a mother of two who has been performing in theaters and public venues for children of all ages since 2005. Stacey was recently chosen for Nickelodeon's Parent Connect Parent Picks Awards 2010 for party entertainer in Boston.
We loved, loved, loved this class! Stacey uses all sorts of props with the kids and keeps them moving and dancing and singing. We had instruments, bubbles, handkerchiefs, egg shakers, a parachute, and much more. She is amazingly interactive and the children are captivated by her enthusiasm and beautiful voice.
I highly recommend this class for parents who are considering a music program for their children, and prefer a more informal, fun, and energetic atmosphere. For more information on the Boston Aardvark Classes, visit the website at http://www.staceypeasley.com/aardvarks/index.html
For the giveaway, Stacey Peasley is giving a $25.00 off discount to the winner of the drawing towards the enrollment of their child in a music session. All you have to do is visit the website above and then comment below telling me one thing you liked about the website.
The drawing will be done on Friday the 17th at 5:00pm. Good luck!!!
