DoReMe&You
Early Childhood Music Program
2023 Update: DRMY is not enrolling at this time. In the meantime, you can enjoy our recordings on YouTube or follow us on Instagram @strongwaterstudios
DoReMe&You is a developmental music therapy program for children ages 0-5 and their caregivers, facilitated by Peri Strongwater, MA, MT-BC. Peri is a certified music therapist and will be facilitating these musical activities to support growth and development in your child!
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.
The approaches in this model are research-driven based on the developmental stages of the children.
