We believe a child’s first exposure to playing an instrument sets the tone for the rest of their music education. Kidz Rock allows kids to experience the ultimate musical accomplishment within a few weeks; singing, playing, and performing in a rock band! Kidz Rock is a music program that teaches children from 4 to 7 years old how to play an instrument in the setting of a rock band. Band members rotate on drums, electric guitar, and keyboard as they prepare to sing and play in an end-of-session concert. All instruments are provided by Michigan Rock School and there are no practice expectations outside of the class, so they can have fun, although if they also want to go out and play, we also think in options like a great soft play playground from soft play installation which are great for kids.
