Wiggle & Giggle Music
Wiggle & Giggle Music provide music classes for babies and children from 0-5yrs, workshops for children aged 5-12yrs,and brass tuition for beginners to advanced.

Our music classes aim to bring the best out of your child by singing, performing, playing instruments and lots more, but our ultimate aim is to simply have fun and enjoy music making!

Unlike other pre-packaged music classes, Wiggle & Giggle Music have designed their own unique program, specifically designed to meet the needs of young children.

As trained and experienced musicians and teachers, Wiggle & Giggle Music teachers have the flexibility to tailor classes to the individual needs of the students, as well as being able to change course and "go with the flow" based on the dynamics of the group.

Wiggle & Giggle Music also encourage the feedback of both parents and children and at the end of each term, we conduct a feedback survey. This allows us to find out what the children enjoyed the most and also gives parents and care givers the opportunity to suggest ideas or discuss any concerns they may have. This also ensures we are meeting the needs and expectations of all.

Through rhymes, songs, stories and imagination your child will discover an exciting and enjoyable world of everyday themes and experiences. With sixteen different and inspiring themes running over a two year period, children will enhance their knowledge of the world around them. Based upon familiar rhymes, tunes and melodies, Wiggle & Giggle Music have created a whole repertoire of songs and verse revolving around the central themes.

The use of traditional nursery rhyme melodies and verse allows the child to become accustomed to the pitch of the tune, whilst also learning new words and lyrics. Studies have shown that melodic and rhythmic repetition can improve a child's learning capability, such as logic, language and sensory-motor skills and memory.

At Wiggle & Giggle Music, we employ this method of teaching throughout the core units. Children are encouraged to clap along and respond to the music using movement and instruments. Just clapping along to a piece of music can increase the child's capability to solve problems! There is also the social side of music making and we encourage children to interact with one another in their music making and also to learn important social skills such as sharing (especially when it comes to playing the instruments!).

Our specialist workshops for children aged 5-12yrs are aimed at vacation care centres, however we also offer workshops running over a number of weeks on a Saturday. These workshops are fun and entertaining and presented in a humorous manner which the children love.

Our Mission Statement

To provide a fun, interactive, stimulating, learning experience through music for babies, infants and children. We will enhance their learning by developing their gross and fine motor skills, cognitive thinking, numeracy and literacy through imagination, kinaesthetic learning, story time, songs and movement.

We endeavour to provide the best, fun, music experience possible and aim to have 100% customer satisfaction. To ensure this we are happy to offer a money back guarantee.
