A little music.
A lot of together time.
Gary leads a playful small-group class with live guitar, original songs, familiar sing-alongs, rhythm instruments and movement games. Your grownup is part of the fun!
- Sing hello, clap along and echo simple rhythms.
- Shake instruments, move to music and play stop-and-go games.
- Enjoy scarf play, musical choices and a family jam.
- Take home a simple musical activity to try together.
Moms, dads, grandparents and caregivers welcome. A responsible adult stays and participates throughout. Children can watch first, join at their own pace or take a break.

Musical Instrument
Petting Zoo
(No animals, only instruments!)
These instruments are here to be played! Children handle and try simple instruments, discover how they make sound and bring their rhythms together in a little band.
Gary demonstrates each instrument, models gentle handling and guides musical games. Children compare sounds, copy rhythms, take turns and try being the conductor.
Explore the textures of shakers, tambourines and simple scraping instruments.
Try a steady beat on hand drums or discover ringing notes on a xylophone.
Hear and feel how strings make sound, with guided turns on a small string instrument.
Optional premium addition
Invite Kablooey!
Add a special visit from Gary’s puppet pal Kablooey to either program. A playful puppet-led musical moment gives your group another way to join the fun.
Kablooey is booked and priced separately. Ask Gary about including the visit and planning the session timing.

We plan together
Dates, ages, group size, accessibility needs, instruments, pricing and any premium additions.
For the first session, plan for approximately 8–12 participating children. Final capacity depends on the room, instruments and available supervision. Indoor space is preferred; ask about other arrangements.
Good to know
Before you join the fun
Which program fits my child?
Music & Me is designed for ages 1–4 with a participating adult. Musical Instrument Petting Zoo is a separate program for ages 4–8. At age four, either may fit; tell Gary what your child enjoys and which format you’re considering.
Is this a drop-off class?
Music & Me requires a caregiver to stay and participate. Musical Instrument Petting Zoo requires caregiver or host staff supervision as agreed with the venue. Ask the organizer about the arrangements for your session.
Do we need instruments or musical experience?
No. Gary supplies the instruments and props agreed for the booking and demonstrates how to use them. Wear comfortable clothes and bring water for your family.
Is Kablooey included?
Kablooey is an optional premium add-on for either program. The visit must be requested and quoted separately.
How much does it cost, and where are classes held?
Fees, dates and locations are confirmed for each hosted program. Contact Gary to ask about upcoming classes, private groups or a venue booking. Class enrollment depends on a confirmed host and available space.
Can siblings attend?
Ask before registering. Ages, room capacity, instrument quantities and the number of participating children determine whether siblings can join. Participating siblings count toward the group limit.
What if my child prefers to watch or needs an adjustment?
Watching first and taking breaks are welcome. Tell Gary and the host about seating, access, sound or other support needs before the session so suitable arrangements can be discussed.
What about instrument care and class policies?
Children receive guided handling instructions, and instruments are cleaned according to their manufacturer’s guidance. Shared mouth-blown instruments are not part of these programs. The organizer provides attendance, illness and cancellation policies before registration.
