In last week’s blog post, I shared about the library programs we offer at the Miami-Dade County Library System ~ Rockin’ & Readin’ (a music therapy program that targets literacy skills) and Baby & Toddler Rock (both developmental music programs).
I’m thrilled that we announced that we JUST received funding to expand and offer these programs at the Brockway Memorial Library System in Miami Shores!
I did a trial session there in April and we had a fantastic turnout. So, I am thrilled to be going back throughout the summer and early fall to do some rockin’ and readin’.
Here is our 2015 schedule:
When: Mondays 11:00 – 11:45am
Session Dates: June 1 – September 30, 2015
Program: We will alternate between Baby Rock and Rockin’ & Readin’ every other week
Where: Brockway Memorial Library, 10021 NE 2nd Ave, Miami Shores, FL 33138
I am so excited. My wheels are already turning with new theme and session ideas for these groups. And, I’ve been browsing the library for more books to add to my singable story collection.
Here are some of my favorite original songs to use in my Baby Rock, Toddler Rock and Rockin’ & Readin’ sessions. Click on each icon below to listen – sheet music & MP3s are available!
Music Therapists: Are you interested in starting up a music therapy program or developmental music program at your library? Did you know I offer consultations about starting these programs? If you’re interested in setting up a consultation, visit our consultation page or contact me directly here. I’ve worked with a number of music therapists & educators to get programs started in their area and I’d love to help you get started, too.
