Half Notes: February 2013

This studio blog is for families with Miss Heidi's Musikgarten (formerly Kindermusik with Heidi) in Flower Mound, Highland Village, Lewisville, Lantana, TX and other nearby suburbs. Musikgarten is the most musically sound approach to early childhood music and movement you will encounter. We aim to help children think better, feel emotions better, listen better, and work together better. Research shows that children who participate in music and movement education do better in school and in life.
