Our age-specific curricula, designed for babies, toddlers, preschoolers and older children, provide a joyful and accessible way to experience music, movement and multilingualism.
Why is music so important for growing children?
Learning music is a foundational skill that supports and enhances all other areas of learning. It helps integrate sensory processing—auditory, visual, and motor functions—which is crucial for a child’s overall development, particularly in the early years.
Fast-track my language learning
Music and language are linked in the brain so the more children develop in musical ability, the faster language develops. This opens up a world of possibilities for typical as well as neurodiverse children and their ability to communicate.
Help me regulate my emotions
Hold on now, did you know that those little brains need rhythm? Yes the prefrontal cortex, the engine room of emotions gets a boost with music training, making it much easier for your children to hold on, wait their turn, with less frustration!
Make me a more focused listener
Music training sharpens the brain’s ability to process sounds, improving concentration, attention to detail, and the ability to follow instructions. It also enhances auditory discrimination, helping students excel in music, communication and everyday learning.

FAQ
What are the goals of the programme?
1. Creating a stimulating and inclusive learning environment that promotes creativity, self-expression, and cultural awareness.
2. Fostering children’s multi-language development by engaging them in singing games, stories and poetry, multilingual repertoire, which nurture verbal skills, memory, creativity and emergent literacy skills, enabling children to become more confident communicators.
3. Helping children learn to control their bodies by engaging them in music and movement activities designed to nurture gross and fine motor skills, foster impulse control and recharge their brains, giving them the mental energy needed to succeed in school.
4. Developing focus by engaging children in listen, move and play activities designed to nurture aural discrimination skills, targeted attention and concentration.
Why combine Music and multilingualism?
You want to understand why we combine music and multilingualism? It's not complicated. It's about giving your child an REAL advantage in a global world.
The Brain's Secret Weapon: Music Is Language
Listen, the science is clear. Your child's brain isn't guessing; it's prewired for greatness. Daniel Levitin, the big brain behind This Is Your Brain on Music, says it straight: "Your child’s brain is prewired to learn music, just as it’s prewired to learn language."
This isn't theory; it's neurological fact. When your child engages with music, they're not just humming tunes. They're firing up the exact same brain regions they use for language. Music hits both sides of the brain—it's a full-spectrum brain workout that naturally supercharges their linguistic abilities. We're talking about accelerated language acquisition, just by having fun.
Building Global Dominators
Now, let's talk about the world they're stepping into. It's connected. It's diverse. And if your child is only operating in one language, they're already behind.
Our multilingual approach isn't just about speaking Spanish or French. It's about wiring their minds to understand diverse cultures, different ways of thinking. We're not just teaching words; we're building empathy and respect for differences. This isn't fluffy idealism. This is laying the groundwork for a future generation that leads.
We're giving your child the cognitive, linguistic, and socioemotional foundation to not just survive, but to thrive and dominate in a globally interconnected world. This is about future-proofing their success.
What does a multilingual music and movement class look like?
You want to know what a MusicVersity class actually looks like for your preschooler? It's not just about keeping them busy. It's about building a sharp, culturally intelligent child from the ground up.
The MusicVersity Preschool Blueprint: Where Play Meets Power
At Alabanza Music, we're not just playing songs. We've engineered a dual-impact curriculum: music education fused with genuine language immersion. This isn't just casual playtime; it's a strategic brain workout.
Our linguistic journey starts strong with English and Spanish, but we're not limited. We pull from the raw, authentic power of Trinbagonian and Venezuelan folk heritage. Think traditional vibes, then layer in contemporary beats from the Spanish and French Creole-speaking Caribbean, and even global rhythms. This isn't just diversity; it's cultural intelligence in action.
And movement? That's not just wiggling. That's how children engage every single sense, locking in musical understanding and body awareness. Movement amplifies the learning experience, making it not just joyful, but unforgettable. We're talking about deep, memorable learning that sticks.
This is how we create well-rounded, culturally aware, and cognitively agile kids. This is the MusicVersity difference.
Should Music class be extra-curricular, co-curricular or core curricular?
Forget the outdated labels. For years, music has been shoved into the "extra-curricular" box. But let's be real: the only thing "extra" about music is that it makes your children extraordinary!
This isn't just an opinion; it's brain science. Music isn't a sideline. It's a power-up for their entire development. We're talking documented activation of brain regions, rocket-fuel for language, and unleashing raw creativity from the earliest age.
Music and foreign language? These are core subjects in primary and secondary schools globally, but somehow, they're often overlooked in early childhood education (ECCE) settings. That's a missed opportunity that could cost your children.
The truth? Ensuring music is a core part of the curriculum isn't a luxury. It's a necessity. It guarantees every child, regardless of background, gets equal access to these undeniable advantages. It builds a rock-solid foundation for their entire educational journey and sets them up for future dominance.
So, the question isn't if your children need music. It's how fast can you make it a core part of their world?
