Musical Motion is Back for Spring 2026

This FREE program runs through May 28.

Published Jan 16, 2026

If you’ve got little ones under five, Musical Motion, presented by Parenting Matters, is a great way to mix fun, learning, and connection.

These FREE bilingual classes are each an hour long and are filled with music, movement, and creative play designed to build early literacy, language, motor skills, and social development.

Parents also get helpful tips for at-home learning and access to Parenting Matters educators for support and questions. Plus, families who attend 10 sessions will receive a FREE activity bag (while supplies last).

Good to know

This is a FREE class, and participation is on a first-come, first-served basis. Donations are accepted year-round to help keep the program going. Whether you attend once or every week, you’re welcome.

Keep an eye on ParentingMattersfl.org and their Facebook page: Parenting Matters for upcoming pop-up sessions scheduled throughout January and May.
