The Tiny VocalMINTS course offers young children an introduction to the wonders of singing! Through call-and-response songs and singing exercises, they will develop essential skills such as pitch and tone matching. Students will understand the basics of rhythm and keeping time with music through clapping, tapping, and movement, and practice breathing exercises to control their breath while singing.

Language development is another focal point, as children expand their vocabularies and refine their pronunciation and articulation through repetitive song lyrics and simple, child-friendly melodies drawn from beloved nursery rhymes, Disney favourites, and musical theatre excerpts. Beyond the musical training, this course also fosters crucial social-emotional skills. By cultivating cooperation, teamwork, self-esteem and confidence through the shared experience of group singing, students will have the opportunity to explore their creativity and find joy in making music together.
