Music

While the classroom teachers use music regularly as part of their daily activities and curriculum, The Learning Gardens also provides an extra music program with our Music Teacher, Casey. To make sure that classrooms are not intermingling (per our COVID-19 precautions), Casey does “wing sings”, where he sings in the hallway, while children listen and participate from their classroom doorways. Casey engages the children with a wide range of songs tailored to that specific age group. If you watch Casey singing to the infant classrooms, you’re likely to hear a lot of soothing lullabies. Whereas in the preschool classroom, you’re more likely to hear a lot of call-and-response songs that engage the children and get them moving.

Meet Casey Day!

Casey has been signing at The Learning Gardens for over 14 years and is very much a favorite of all of the children. His enthusiasm is contagious, fun and over the top exciting. He enjoys bringing music in to the hearts of all the little ones at The Learning Gardens. When he’s not at The Learning Gardens, there’s a good chance you’ll be able to catch him performing as part of the Casey and Greg duo somewhere around the Madison area. Below are a few testimonials that parents have shared with us about Casey:
