KIN NEST 2 - Explorer
KIN by Perry School · West Village
KIN Nest 2: Music & Move Ages 8–18 months | 45 minutes KIN Nest 2 is an active music-and-movement experience created for crawlers, cruisers, and emerging walkers. Class begins in the KIN Soundgarden, where children explore early childhood songs, live music, instruments, scarves, dance ribbons, tunnels, gentle ramps, bungee cords, and sensory materials. Repetition, rhythm, movement, and responsive language help strengthen listening, communication, coordination, and early learning. Children then take a big step down into our spectacular Sky Room—a bright, 1,200-square-foot KIN Move space illuminated by a giant skylight. With wide-open areas for crawling, rolling, cruising, and walking, children have the freedom to move their entire bodies. Age-appropriate mats, inclines, declines, large tunnels, slides, climbers, rockers, soft equipment, and introductory obstacle courses encourage balance, strength, spatial awareness, confidence, and independent exploration. Each class also includes parachute games, bubbles and sensory exploration before everyone reconnects for a familiar goodbye song. Throughout the experience, KIN’s loving adults—family members, caregivers, and trusted educators—stay close, sing, model movements, offer reassurance, and celebrate each child’s discoveries. Together, we create a secure community in which children feel confident moving, learning, communicating, and connecting with others
