Music Classes for Toddlers in Glen Allen
Are you ready to expose your toddler to one of life’s greatest joys? In our music classes for toddlers in Glen Allen, your child will have the opportunity to romp, stomp n’ roll with the music. Our trained staff will guide the students through a music lesson exclusively offered at Romp n' Roll West End. We are passionate about enrichment classes for kids because it has so much to offer children. Musical play combined with movement can help children to grow physically, emotionally and socially all while having fun! And that is what we, here at Romp n' Roll West End, are all about.
The Benefits of Music Classes for Toddlers:
Children are constantly building new neurons and pathways in the brain. This development is largely connected to new and repeated experiences of the child. Our music classes for toddlers can help the growing brain by providing musical experiences that will increase the child’s memory, language comprehension and prepare them for reading in the future.
Music can be used as a wonderful tool for parents to help their child regulate strong emotions. In time, as a child becomes familiar with songs and rhythms that help them cope with anger, fear, or sadness the child will be able to use the same tool, music, to cope with these emotions on their own. In our music classes for toddlers we guide children down this path of using song and movement to pass through those strong feelings.
Furthermore, music can create feelings and sensations within the body. A child that is in tune with his/her body will be able to recognize and define their feelings and will have a greater ability to self-regulate.
So much of healthy socialization is tied to understanding emotions, and having the ability to empathize with others. As we have already discussed, music is uniquely able to elicit emotions and in this way aides in the development of emotional awareness. This development sets a child up for building friendships as they will be able to empathize and connect with their peers. In addition, it is the child that is able to regulate their emotions when facing hard tasks, such as sharing, that will have more success with making and maintaining friends.
Furthermore, one study on children and music found that moving in synchrony to music with others helped toddlers to build social bonds. In one of our music classes for toddlers your child will be given the opportunity to bond with their peers and learn about feelings through song and dance.
When a young toddler attempts to use a xylophone for the first time, they will likely need assistance to hit a strong clear note. As the child plays with the xylophone more, they will develop the necessary motor skills to hold the handle and either strike the desired note or drag the percussion mallet along the instrument playing a string of notes. These seemingly simple abilities, that so many adults take for granted, take a toddler time and energy to develop. Our music classes for toddlers create the perfect opportunity for children to practice these skills. And the fun they will have in the music class will ensure that this will not be frustrating work for the child, but fulfilling play!

- Introduction to Basic Musical Concepts
- Rhythm and Movement
- Instrument Play
- Language Learning through Song
Our music classes for toddlers include instruction on basic music concepts such as fast and slow, or loud and soft. The classes allow for children to learn about and play with a variety of instruments as they experiment with rhythm and beat. A child beating on a drum will hear, and feel the rhythm of a song. This experience will turn a rather complex concept into something the child can understand because they have experienced it. As the child learns to move and dance to songs of varying meters, again that child is learning about rhythm. Rhythm and music are valuable tools in helping children to grasp new words and uses of language. In our music classes for toddlers, the children learn to sing to a beat and the words of the song are learned and remembered easily.
