Kindermusik Christmas

About this time of year I'll admit I start getting a little stressed. It seems I can not go into any store, even the grocery store without a battle ensuing with one of my kids over a toy, a cool game, the newest movie. My kids get a really bad case of the I WANTS from now til Christmas! And then we get home and I trip over the toys, books, games, and stuffed animals left out in every room. If we get one more toy in this house my head may explode! We do not need any more 'stuff.' Just because it's Christmas does not mean we need something new.

So last year I had had enough. So my husband and I were talking and we decided to start giving experiences and memories to our kids for Christmas. We talked to them about it and at first they weren't totally on board. Then we explained that instead of getting one toy that would probably break, or we'd lose a part, or run out of batteries (insert numerous examples of this happening in the past) they would get months of a fun activity. So my oldest son decided on Tia Kwon Do lessons. We wrapped up his uniform and put it under the tree and he loved it!! He has worked hard every week for almost a year now and has advanced to a Sr White belt. My second son chose TBall so he got a new glove and hat under the tree and loved his Tball season. This was a hit!

With Black Friday around the corner I'm sure we'll all be checking the ads and trying to find the best deals for things we think our kids need or want. But wouldn't it be great to give them a gift that's not only fun for a few days or weeks, but will last months and even their whole life! Giving your child the experience of Kindermusik will lay a foundation for years to come of musical education, increased learning potential, and great fun for you as a family.

Let's say you have a large extended family and draw names like we do in my family. When aunt and uncle so and so come asking what your kiddos would like, wouldn't it be great to tell them you'd love to give them the gift of music and fun educational learning instead of another game or movie or toy. I have gift certificates available in any denomination.

My schedule for January is up and it's as easy as registering online. If you enroll before December 10th I'll hand deliver your At Home Materials for the class all wrapped up and ready to be put under the tree.

I would love to help relieve some of the stress of Christmas shopping for you, so make it a Kindermusik Christmas!
