Join us for fun and engaging music activities including group instrument play, singing new and familiar songs, and movement to music.  This music therapy group is for children who are verbal to learn and practice social skills through shared musical experiences. Group goals will be developing awareness of self and others and engaging in appropriate interactions with peers in a supportive musical environment. Parent participation is required – This is not a drop off program.
