At Music Together® Giggle & Groove, we’re proud to offer the renowned early childhood music curriculum that has been bringing the joys of family music-making to children and parents since 1987. Millions of families and teachers around the world have experienced the powerful benefits of having music in their lives, and now you can join the fun right here in Hamilton, ON!
Designed for children from birth to age eight, Music Together Giggle & Groove fosters your child’s natural musicality in a playful, musically rich environment. Our research-based, non-formal, and non-performance-oriented classes allow children to learn at their own pace in a way that’s developmentally appropriate for them.
When you enroll in our program, you’ll experience a full semester of classes led by one of our trained teachers. Each class introduces new songs and activities that will inspire you to bring music into your family’s everyday life, creating musical memories that will last a lifetime.
At Music Together, we know that children learn differently than adults. They learn instinctively and constantly, and teach themselves through imitation and play, through being immersed in their environment, and through interaction with adults and older children. The family-like setting of Music Together classes creates an ideal learning environment. And it’s all based on research in early childhood and music development.
You are your child’s most important music teacher right now! Young children learn through play and experimentation and by watching and listening to the grownups they love. Setting an example as an enthusiastic participator in music activities is the best thing any parent or caregiver can do to help set a child on the road to a lifelong love of music. Parents don't need to have music skills—they just need a desire to play and have fun with their children! Our teachers are specially trained to create a safe atmosphere so you can happily join in, experiment, or even get silly—and feel closer to your child while doing so.
Wiggling, singing, and laughing with your child is so much fun, it's easy to forget how much learning is taking place! Our research-based curriculum not only develops music skills but also nurtures creativity, self-expression, and confidence while also supporting social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development. Because these benefits build over time, children enjoy the fullest growth in each of these areas when they participate as consistently as possible up through kindergarten. Try a class!
Music Together Giggle & Groove is dedicated to making our community a better place—by making it more musical! Join us and become part of an amazing community of families, where you can make music with friends and watch your child's musicality grow and thrive!
Year-Round Music Making
Our program runs year-round, with 9-week Fall, Winter, and Spring sessions, plus a 6-week Summer session. While we accept new enrollments anytime (space permitting), we encourage everyone to join at the beginning of a session to get the most out of the class experience. Most importantly, your child’s learning will be maximized because we know that music education happens best over time rather than in a drop-in format. We can’t wait to make music with you and your family!
