DESCRIPTION:Music and Movement\nGet ready to laugh\, play\, and connect li
 ke never before! In this joyful baby-parent music class\, every moment bec
 omes a memory to treasure. From your baby’s very first giggle to the wid
 e-eyed anticipation of the next bounce\, tickle\, or snuggle\, this class 
 is designed to engage both you and your little one in meaningful\, musical
  fun. \nEach week\, you and your baby – whether they’re brand new or a
 lready taking first steps – will move together through a carefully craft
 ed mix of singing\, dancing\, instrument play\, and sensory exploration. W
 e begin by welcoming everyone with cheerful songs and gentle movement\, he
 lping babies settle in and get excited for what’s to come. Then\, we tra
 nsition into active play\, where bouncing on laps\, spinning in circles\, 
 and lifting high into the air all help to build strength\, balance\, and c
 oordination. \nFocus on Baby Development\nBut that’s just the beginning.
  Throughout the session\, we weave in language development through rhythm 
 and rhyme\, encourage tummy and floor time through guided play\, and build
  your baby’s awareness of the world through touch\, sound\, and movement
 . You’ll also learn calming massage techniques\, tips for supporting dev
 elopment at home\, and ways to bond even more deeply with your little one.
  \nIn addition to the weekly in-class experience\, your registration inclu
 des access to Kindermusik’s award-winning digital app and online resourc
 es. So the music and learning don’t stop when you walk out the door – 
 they continue throughout your week\, wherever you are. \nNew theme-based u
 nits keep things fresh every month\, so there’s always something new to 
 discover and enjoy together. Taught by certified early childhood educators
  using Kindermusik’s trusted\, research-based curriculum\, this class of
 fers more than just fun – it’s an investment in your child’s early g
 rowth and in your relationship with them. \nJoin us and let the music move
  you both! See www.kindermusiknorthshore.com for more information.

DESCRIPTION:Halloween Creepy Crawlies is a family friendly dance productio
 n produced by Darvin Dances that explores the mysteries of Halloween throu
 gh a lost ghost’s search for her haunted home. On her way\, she is helpe
 d by Ballerina Witches\, Jazzy Vampires\, Modern-Dancing Mummies\, a Tap-D
 ancing Skeleton and even a Jack O’ Lantern named Jake!\n\nOur story star
 ts when Mallory (a ghost) awakes on Halloween Eve to find that she has bee
 n removed from her haunted house! After figuring out how to move her vario
 us limbs again (or lack thereof)\, she runs into Jake. This twirling and b
 ouncing Jack O Lantern directs her to talk to the mysterious ballerina wit
 ches of the Foggy Forest. Jake gives Mallory a map to find the Foggy Fores
 t and hopefully to meet the ballerina witches for their advice. The witche
 s take her to their Cauldron of Truth where Mallory is told that she will 
 have to help the jazzy vampires and modern dancing mummies at Creepy Crawl
 y Lane make amends for the Cauldron to help her.\n\nWhen Mallory and Jake 
 make their way to CCL\, they find the jazzy vampires and modern dancing mu
 mmies in a fierce candy stealing war. She and Jake convince them that if t
 hey share all their entire candy stash\, everyone will end up with enough 
 candy. On their way back from Creepy Crawly Lane\, they run into a tap-dan
 cing skeleton getting ready for a dance performance. They stop to watch he
 r dance and wish her luck! Then back at the Foggy Forest\, the Cauldron pr
 oduces a map back to Mallory’s haunted house. The production ends with M
 allory waving from the stoop of her haunted house with Jake handing out ca
 ndy to the Halloween Trick or Treaters.\n\nThis production was created by 
 Mariah Eastman\, artistic director of Darvin Dances\, a Chicago based mode
 rn/contemporary dance company. Along with six professional dancers\, there
  are seven young dancers from the Chicago community participating in this 
 production (dancers are based at Dovetail Studios\, Gus Giordano and Tutu 
 School). The choreography was created by Mariah Eastman with Alicia Wilson
  and Vanessa Maxwell choreographing for the young dancers. Illustrations w
 ere created by Nat Thomas (https://natthomas.work/work) with lighting desi
 gn by Ruby Lowe.\n\nThis performance has been generously subsidized throug
 h Chicago Danztheatre Ensemble’s artist's support and residency program 
 as well as sponsored by Tutu School.
