About DoReMe&You
DoReMe&You is an original developmental music therapy program developed by Strongwater Studios for babies, toddlers and kids. Groups will run like music education groups, but rather than focusing on the music production and musical skills as the main goal, groups will focus on specific developmental goals such as listening, turn-taking, respecting peers, self-expression, cooperation, and many more. We will sing along to and listen to beloved children's music, original music written specifically for DoReMe&You, and songs spanning classical, rock, folk, bluegrass, Motown and other genres. Participants will sing, dance, move and play while working towards developmental goals and exploring how to integrate musical experiences into their child's growth and wellness.
This model of music therapy is used for young children with any and all abilities. Groups will run like music education groups, but rather than focusing on the music production and musical skills as the main goal, groups will focus on specific developmental goals such as listening, turn-taking, respecting peers, self-expression, cooperation, and many more. These groups allow children a safe space to explore their creativity while being respectful and cooperative with one another. The approaches in this model are research-driven based on the developmental stage of the children.
