4 year olds play "See the Pony Galloping" - In this video the song & activity is introduced independent of parent participation. You will hear the teacher singing the song as children play. Later in the class series the children will sing the song on their own. Note that a younger sibling is in the class and he is learning the game at his own level as he watches his older brother follow the directions of the game - he joins in once he has processed the activity in his mind. "Playfulness" is the focus of the activities.

See current class schedule below:
