Preschool classes include
a weekly half hour
with our creative movement
specialist, Leila Pelhan.
Leila gets the children moving
incorporating singing,
dance, recorded music,
and rhythm instruments into
her class.


Music supports self-expression, cooperative play, creativity, emotional well- being,
and development of social, cognitive, communication, and motor skills. Music and
singing are a fun and effective way to help young children learn.

Excerpted from "Music as a Teaching Tool: Creating Story Songs" by Shelly Ringgenberg -
