About this event

MINIKEYS: RESERVE YOUR SPOT FOR JUST $95 TODAY! Looking for a music class your preschooler will absolutely love? MiniKeys is Brooklyn Music Factory's award-winning music program for 4- and 5-year-olds , where young musicians build confidence, creativity, and a lifelong love of music by playing, singing, and creating together as a band. Through original songs, big music games, and hands-on exploration, students develop the essential building blocks of music—including rhythm, melody, ear training, song form, the musical alphabet, and more. Every activity is designed to keep kids engaged while helping them build real musical skills. Each week, students sing, play different instruments, write songs together, and discover how instruments work together to create music. Along the way, they'll strengthen their listening skills, learn to collaborate with others, and experience the excitement of making music as part of a team. At BMF, we believe the best way to learn music is by making music. That's why every MiniKeys class is filled with movement, creativity, laughter, and opportunities for every child to contribute. Throughout the year, students perform on the BMF stage, proudly sharing what they've learned with family and friends. Reserve your spot today for just $95 and give your child the gift of making music, building confidence, and having a blast every week.
