Musical Playtime Academy is a child-centered, play-based multi-cultural preschool program designed to facilitate positive interaction between children and music. Through thoughtfully designed games and activities based around music, children unwittingly develop not only musical ability, but preschool skills, individual identity, social skills, and child and caregiver bonding.

Classes take place for 30 minutes once weekly for 10 weeks. Curriculum is designed for preschool age children. Each class has no more than 12 students and their caregivers. Throughout each class, students are active participants singing, dancing, playing instruments, and playing games. Songs and activities are inclusive, secular, and apolitical.
