Discover the joy of development with Melodies & ABC's, an engaging and inclusive music program designed for children aged 6 months to 6 years.
Our curriculum offers a proven framework to nurture your child's growth across multiple domains:
Musicality: Developing a foundation for a lifelong love of music.
Social Skills: Encouraging interaction, sharing, and group participation.
Academic Readiness: Building foundational concepts through rhythm and song.
Motor Skills: Enhancing coordination through movement and instrument play.
Expertly Crafted Curriculum
Melodies & ABC's was created by Michelle Yaciuk, who brings a wealth of knowledge with a Master of Music (specializing in Music Therapy) and a Bachelor of Science (specializing in Music and Special Education). Her expertise ensures a high-quality, research-backed learning experience.
Inclusion and Comfort
We are proud to be an inclusive program welcoming all children. While each age category and semester features unique themes, instruments, and curriculum, every class maintains a consistent structure. This familiar rhythm helps children feel comfortable and confident as they explore new sounds and ideas.
Ready to let your child's potential sing? Contact us today!
Our Sampler Program (Intro to piano and ukulele) for ages 5-6 yr olds allows both parent and child to explore the specific instrument in a low-risk environment. At home practicing is not required at this stage of development however, these classes serve as a feeder program into private music lessons.
Prelude Music is pleased to be able to offer Melodies & ABC’s classes 7 days a week during daytime and evening time slots. If there is a certain time you would like a class to be offered please follow us on Facebook. We ask every semester when customers would like classes offered and that is the best place to make a request and be kept up to date regarding classes.
Every semester changes based on how many weeks. Currently pricing is set for classes for children 2 years of age and under (30 mins/wk) is $16/class paid on a the semester. A semester can range anywhere from 8-12 weeks meaning the total cost for the semester is $128-192 no tax, registration fees etc., 3-5 year old classes are 45 minutes in length and cost $21/class but paid by the semester, therefore, you can expect to pay somewhere between $168-252. The Intro to Instrument classes (5-6) return to 30 mins and cost $16/class. These semesters are only 10 weeks, therefore the cost is $160.
In Melodies & ABCs we believe parents should stay with their children all the way through. Not because the children can’t attend on their own but more so because the parents need to know about the musical concepts being taught to eventually help them practice at home. Also there are studies that support the higher the bond between parent and children the less likely they are to become bullies in school and its fun to take some time to play with your child.
No, We have thought long and hard about offering this type of programming and always comes to the same conclusion. The larger the age spread the more music recreation the lessons have to be. One of the things Prelude Music prides itself on is how much the children are learning in each age level. If we opened up the age ranges then we couldn’t be as skill focused.
Termination of Lessons: You can withdraw from class up to the start of the third week and we will refund for the remaining classes Less a $50 drop out fee. You can also choose to leave the money on file as a credit for the next semester if you plan on signing up in the future with us.
