Timbalooloo is an innovative music program where instruments come to life and speak through their music so that children learn to express themselves by making their instruments come alive and talk through their music.
Inspired by the way children learn languages so intuitively and naturally at this age, we strive to empower children to become fluent and expressive in the language of music. Just as you would not speak with your children only in 1-syllable words, we too draw on the many wonderful elements of the musical language - from Herbie Hancock to Mozart, Willie Nelson to Tito Puente. Children get to experience professional instruments and styles from around the world.
The benefits beyond music are also far reaching – math, history, cultural appreciation, speech, fine and gross motor skills are developed, not to mention the most important skill in life: to really listen to what is happening in the moment, and then find a way to add your own beauty.
