We have found a collection of fantastic music programs within Walters Music Studio on the south side of Edmonton! We love what Music for Young Children is all about. Their child centered approached as well as their commitment to fun really makes these programs unique!
MYC offers a unique parent-child learning opportunity. Parents and children work together to learn new ideas and practice their piano at home! Group classes offer children a fun environment to learn music.
Their philosophy is that learning should be fun; the studio integrates lots of music games into their lessons. Children play games to learn and reinforce concepts.
In MYC, children meet in small groups, in their own age category, once a week for an hour, accompanied by an adult (parent, grandparent or caregiver) who participates in the program.
One of our very own momstown mama's Terrie M. checked out the Music Pups classes at Walter's Music studio and was so impressed she wanted to share her experience!
How old are your children?
Rebekkah was 18 months and Declan was 6 months at the start of the class.
What class did you attend?
Music Pups Wednesday morning class @ 9:30 - The Monkey Collection.
What did your child learn through MYC?
She learned to clap to the beat and dance, she loves to dance! She learned to share and follow instructions (sometimes) and she learned to explore her surroundings, to her mothers dismay :)

What was your favourite part of the class?
I loved watching both of my babies develop a love of music and to see them react and show their distinct like or dislike for a certain song, activity or person. It was awesome to see glimpses of the people they will be.
What was your child's favorite part?
I think Rebekkah's favorite part was dancing with Miss Hetty, well dancing and clapping period and finding new instruments. Declan certainly loved the interactive songs and chewing on the sticks!
Did the class meet or exceed your expectations?
By far exceeded them!
What was different about this class compared to others?
In previous classes that I had attended with both babies it seemed like we miss out and I always struggled to keep both babies calm. Miss Hetty created a space where I felt like it was okay for my babies to explore and if they went beyond what was allowed there was no disapproving look. She was able to help and engage Rebekkah and focus her attention to the current activity. It was wonderful to not have to constantly chase a child and leave another to do so.
What was your impression of the instructor?
There are not enough hours in the day to write how warm, inviting, engaging and wonderful Hetty is. She is by far the friendliest teacher I have found. It was a pleasure to be in her class and we are certainly looking forward to joining again in the fall!
