Kindermusik Foundations

The Foundations class is so much more than lullabies and swaying. We teach families how sound exploration, listening activities, and dances help babies communicate, stimulate eye-tracking skills, and learn to move and coordinate new muscles.

 
  • Movement Control
    Different movement activities help babies strengthen their core muscles, which increases their sense of balance and control over movements.
  • Social Adaptability
    Group activities allow babies to experience familiar and unfamiliar social experiences in a safe and secure way.
  • Listening and Communication Skills
    Listening to music and doing vocal play exercises helps develop a baby’s back-and-forth communication skills.
  • Language and Literacy Development
    Introducing spoken sounds and rhythms through songs and rhymes helps support language and literacy development.

Cara Phillips

Music has always played a role in Mrs. Cara's life. She grew up in a musical family, with both parents being music educators. She played piano and French Horn throughout high school, college, and beyond. For several years she was a French Horn player for the Rockwall Community Band and a brass quintet called Rockwall Brass. After earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Missouri State University, Mrs. Cara taught High School Chemistry for five years. She continued her education to add a Masters in Counseling, focusing on children and adolescents. Mrs. Cara's latest adventure is being a mom to her three young children as well as a teenage daughter she recently adopted from Ukraine. She found Kindermusik as a parent, when she took her children to local classes. As a Kindermusik mom she loved the bonding time she had with her kids during class and the developmental benefits they were receiving. Now a Licensed Kindermusik Educator herself, Mrs. Cara loves sharing her passion for music with families in her own classroom.
