My son, Jack loves music. But I can only take so many renditions of sappy kid’s music before wanting to lock myself in a closet. The solution? Bandwagon Music Class! I took Jack to a free demo class and he loved every second of it. I had a blast as well, but I’m even more stoked by the prospect of finding something my baby and I can enjoy together.
Instructor Heidi Howe fills her music classes with a sense of humor and song choice that will even get mom and dad humming a tune. She seamlessly flows though folk and traditional songs and also adds a mix of popular artists like Counting Crowes, Janis Joplin and the Beatles. Most of her classes also include fun rhythm exercises as well as Jack’s favorite- experimentation with musical instruments.
Classes are located at Mama’s Hip on 1559 Bardstown Road and are Mondays and Wednesdays at 10:30 a.m. and Tuesdays at 9:30 a.m. Unlike a lot of other music classes in town, Bandwagon allows you to pay just for the classes you attend. The cost is only $7 and the first class is free! Check out www.weteachthearts.com [4] for more information
