What is Zumbini?

Created by Zumba® and BabyFirst™, Zumbini' is an early childhood education program that uses original music and movement to promote cognitive, social, fine/gross motor skill, and emotional development for children ages 0-4, all while creating the ultimate bonding experience for you and your child!


Benefits of Zumbini

EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Music will help your child identify what different emotions may "sound" and "feel" like. The different
rhythms in our class create intentional shifts inyour child's mood-some boosting their energy levels, while others help them relax.

FINE + GROSS MOTOR SKILL DEVELOPMENT
Vibrant movement, choreography, and instrument play throughout the class activate both small and large muscle groups, promoting your child's overall physical development.

COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT

Music and movement stimulate neural connections in the brain, especially in young children. Your child will use reason and logicwhen identifying music patterns and playing instruments, while the repetition of sounds and syllables will enhance your child's language development.

SOCIAL SKILL DEVELOPMENT

Connecting with their peers through dynamic son dance, and instrument play - our classes offer high level of social interaction in which your chil will learn age-appropriate social skills.
