What to expect from a kids' music class

Music programs for young children in NYC are mostly caregiver-and-child classes — singing, rhythm instruments and movement — from a few months old up to about age 4, in 45-minute sessions that run for a term of 8 to 15 weeks. From around age 5 or 6, options split into group classes (choir, early piano, ukulele, rock band) and private lessons on an instrument. Group classes typically supply instruments; private lessons expect the child to have one at home to practice on. Most schools offer a trial class or a single lesson before you commit to a term.
