There is no better way to celebrate the magical moments of the young child than through the joy of music. So many of your baby's special moments fly by so quickly. Music can enhance and magnify the joy of these magical moments through touch, sound, movement and musical celebration. Together, you and your child can experience the true meaning of community in a musical environment.

Just as important, research has proven that music study and participation from birth to age 10 can give your child the academic edge in reading, math and other skills associated with reasoning. Without the proper simulation, after age 10 the musical windows in the brain begin to close and musical learning can become more labored and difficult.

The Music Institute of Lexington is proud to offer the most comprehensive and varied Early Childhood Music curriculum in Central Kentucky!
