Our Baobab Participation Agreement and Waiver Form Little Makers Music Circle is a joyful caregiver-child class that blends sensory open play, global songs, song circle, movement, storytelling, and a curated art activity. Each class begins with open-ended sensory play, giving children time to explore, settle in, and connect at their own pace. Families then come together for a global song circle with music, rhythm, movement, and simple songs from around the world. The class ends with a hands-on craft or art activity adapted by age, so each child can participate in a way that feels developmentally appropriate, creative, and fun. This class supports creativity, fine motor skills, confidence, listening, social-emotional development, and caregiver-child connection. It is playful, welcoming, and designed for young children to learn through music, making, movement, and community.
