Kindermusik fall sessions, free classes & August playdates, Savannah

Sunday, August 5th, 2012

Attention Savannah-area Families of Children Ages 0-7 who are interested in enhancing and enriching the musical development of your child.

Come join Kindermusik parent-and-child sessions for a cool musical treat in August, and again in the Fall with more Kindermusik and find out about some FREE Kindermusik classes.

Kindermusik is a classroom learning experience. KINDERMUSIK with 88 KEYS PIANO in Savannah teaches children music so they can become better learners. It’s not about making little Mozarts. It’s about developing skills in the whole child – ages newborn to 7 years – cognitive, physical, social, emotional, language and musical. For more than 25 years, Kindermusik has believed music is the best conductor for learning.

AUGUST 15th playdates: Join Kindermusik with your 3.5 and younger children for a morning of one-time playdates. It’ll be ONE HOUR of solid musical fun beginning at 9:30am for babies (up to 20 months) and 10:40am for toddlers (18 months to 4 years). Sessions begin with an instrument “petting zoo”, followed by structured musical activities sure to delight all. Gather together your playdate groups for one morning of musical playdates. Expect to see these one-time playdates pop up at random times throughout the school year.

“Just Mom’n’Me” one-week session the week of August 26: Did Big Brother or Big Sister go back to school recently? How about easing the transition for your little one by spending some quality time with him/her? Kindermusik will be offering “Peek A Boo, I Love You!” for 0-20 months, and their brand new curriculum, “Time for Lunch” for toddlers, ages 18 months to 3 years old! Peek A Boo meets M-F at 9:30 and Time for Lunch meets T-F at 10:20.

Register online today here, as all class sizes are limited!

FREE Kindermusik classes: FREE DEMO DAYS at Kindermusik with 88 KEYS PIANO on Wed. Aug. 22 and on Fri. Aug. 24. These will be a preview of the classes that begin in September. Preregisteration required for these FREE DEMO classes, as space is limited and classes fill up quickly. Register here.

Brand NEW school year classes with monthly subscription: All classes last 32 weeks, from the week of September 10 through May of 2013.
Here are some notable benefits of Kindermusik’s monthly subscription classes:
1. Easy automated MONTHLY payment systems. No more lump sum “semester” fees due. Now you can easily budget for Kindermusik classes all year round because the payment is the same EVERY month.
2. NO PAYMENT until September: Reserve your space TODAY with NO FEES TAKEN until Sept. 4. Secure your child’s spot in class without any financial commitment until the Fall.
3. Easy to stay enrolled; easy to withdraw if needed. Just let Kindermusik know by email before the first of each month and your credit/debit card won’t be billed the following month. Monthly billing is done on the 4th of each month.
4. Easy to transfer classes when your child gets to be the next age level. No more waiting until a new “semester” begins. When your child is old enough to move up, just let Kindermusik know and they’ll move them at the beginning of the next month. Simple and convenient.
5. New monthly mini-themes and new home materials with each change of session.
6. Twenty-two classes to choose from each week; M-F, 9am-5pm. Choose the one that’s best for YOU.
7. Unlimited make-ups! Just email or call Kindermusik to let them know so they can make sure there’s space in class.
8. Smiles and satisfaction guarantee: If you aren’t completely satisfied with your Kindermusik experience after one month, just send Kindermusik an email before the 1st of the month to let them know and they won’t debit your card the following month. If any materials were given, they are yours to keep without further obligations.
9. If you ARE completely satisfied with your Kindermusik experience, take advantage of the REFERRAL REWARDS: If you are enrolled and you bring in a NEW Kindermusik family, Kindermusik will credit your account for $10 for the next consecutive month.

Take Better Photos Beginner Photography Class for Moms, July 28, Savannah

Wednesday, July 11th, 2012

We know a lot of our readers are amateur photographers with a lot of artistic talent, but searching for know-how when it comes to the nuts and bolts of photography! Which is why we’re thrilled to tell you about a beginner how-to-take better-photos class.

Topics the class will cover include:

-10 Tips for Taking Better Photos
-Introduction to Exposure
-ISO
-Shutter Speed
-Aperture
-Training Wheels
-Using your Camera’s Basic Settings
-Lens Overview

Q: How much are the workshops and what do they include?
A: The three hour group class is $135 per person (don’t worry you can pay half down if you’d like) and includes light refreshments and lots of other goodies. Each person will receive a class guide to keep as a reference. You will also receive a fabulous swag bag! Class size is limited so everyone will have an opportunity to ask specific questions.

Q: I don’t have a fancy DSLR camera, but I love photography and want to take better pictures with my point and shoot. Can I still come?
A: Yes, we would still love to have you! However, there will be a couple subjects we go over that will be strictly about DSLR cameras, such as lens choices and functions that your camera may not have. But most the subjects can be used for people with DSLR’s and Point and Shoots!

Q: Do I have to be a mom to sign up for your workshop?
A: No, you do not. Although the majority of the class will be moms with young children, we respect that other will want to join in as well. No matter who you are, if you want to learn how to take better pictures of kids, you are more than welcome to attend.

Q: Can I host one of these workshops at my house?
A: If you live in Rincon, GA or Savannah, GA, yes you can! We charge $125 per person for house parties with a minimum of 5 people. So if you get 5 of your friends to come to your pad for a workshop, you don’t have to pay anything!

Q: Do you offer special discounts if I get a bunch of my friends to sign up?
A: Yes we do! If you get 5 people to attend our workshop, you’re in free! If you get 3 people registered, we give you $50 off!
