Tiny Tots Piano Program (TTPP)
"Our family has thoroughly enjoyed the Tiny Tots Piano Program at Richmond Music School. The program is perfect for families with young kids, offering a fun and engaging introduction to music. We are especially grateful to the teacher, Sana, who has been incredibly patient and nurturing. Her ability to connect with the children and teach piano in a way that makes learning enjoyable has been truly impressive. We’ve seen wonderful progress in our son’s musical journey, and we highly recommend the TTPP program to any family looking to inspire a love for music in their little ones. " - TTPP Parent (S.G.)
All children are born musical. Planting the musical seed in young children in the early years, parents and teachers act as the “gardeners” who provide a suitable environment and nurturing to enable the seed to grow and develop to its full potential.
TTPP is a RMS Special Program that prepares young musicians (Age2-5) with a foundation for
one-on-one lessons.
This 30-minute class is for 2 to 5-year-olds accompanied by a parent or caregiver. The TTPP curriculum is an interactive program using the “tiny piano” with 25 keys and piano sound, and the piano’s size is suitable for toddlers' and preschoolers’ cognitive development and physical growth.
The teacher will teach the students about musical elements like notes, beats, intonation, and tone. In addition to playing tunes on the tiny piano, students will engage in a fun and creative class atmosphere that includes movement, singing, and large muscle activities.
The small class size (maximum 4) guided by our Early Childhood Music teachers allows for more time and attention for individualized instruction and structured activities. There is one piano for every student in the class.
