Canta y Baila Conmigo®

Music and movement in Spanish for children ages 0-6. This class is for beginners to native Spanish speakers.

Take a journey into Spanish language and its cultures through the magical world of music. 

With Canta y Baila Conmigo®, you and your child will be transported as you sing, dance and play to the irresistible sounds and rhythms of Spanish-speaking countries.

Canta y Baila Conmigo® is a unique curriculum with dual, complimentary goals of music education and language immersion. Designed for beginners and native speakers alike, CyBC creates a playful, interactive atmosphere where language learning is integrated naturally and organically in the musical experience.

Classes are conducted entirely in Spanish by experienced teachers/musicians. Each semester features a collection of carefully selected folk classics, familiar children’s songs, and new adaptations of traditional songs and rhymes. Along with the take-home CD and digital download of materials, families receive a songbook containing Spanish lyrics, sheet music, cultural notes, and an English Language Supplement for families learning Spanish.

Canta y Baila Conmigo® is a music and movement class for children 0-6 and their adult caregivers. It is designed to be accessible to all families, regardless of native language, musical background, ethnicity, age, or ability level.

The beautiful Family Songbook with accompanying music CD, and digital download and streaming option is a key component of our curriculum. Each family receives a set of these materials every semester so that the learning and grooving can continue at home. In addition, registered families have access to the Family Playground, which offers additional family support materials and fun “extras” for kids.

What makes Canta y Baila Conmigo® different from other language programs?

Many programs teach vocabulary using songs.  We pride ourselves in teaching language through music. We take music education seriously, and we present it in the context of language immersion. 

​

This unique curriculum offers:

​

  • A fun and motivating Spanish immersion experience

​

  • A solid foundation for early musical development

​

  • Class activities that promote cognitive, language, motor, and social skills

​

  • Exposure through music to the cultures and traditions of Spanish-speaking countries
