From Kidder Music Website
Attention Parents & Educators of Children ages 4-7: Spring is approaching, which means it’s time for our annual Kidder Music Pre-School Tours at our Peoria Location. Our FREE program offers your children the chance to learn about the many ways we can express ourselves through music. The program starts with a warm welcome from our staff and consists of the following:
Welcome – Children are greeted by our staff and given a brief overview of sound, music, and instruments.
Video Instrduction – We’ll show a portion of the Music Makes Wonders video by Sesame Street
Instrument Demonstration – Members of our staff demonstrate each family of instruments.
Arts & Crafts – Children will make an instrument or musical craft.
Store Tour – We’ll take a quick tour of our repair shop, warehouse and sales floor.
Instrument Tryouts – Children get the opportunity to try a percussion or string instrument.
Throughout their visit, children will be engaged with fun question & answer sessions, hands on learning opportunities and interaction lots of friendly faces. They’ll meet our sales staff, repair technicians, and shipping clerk as we all come together to show the fun that can be had with music.
The entire presentation generally lasts 50-60 minutes. We are flexible and can accommodate longer and shorter time spans as well. We offer a morning and afternoon session on every weekday in March and April. Many different organizations have taken part in our tours, including child care centers, church groups, home school groups, and more!
