The BSM Kindermusik End-of-Year Celebrations

All of our music classes during the second half of our spring semester were taught online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but the Kindermusik students, especially the toddlers, pre-K and kindergarten ages, were especially tired of the screen and wanted a real-time music class.

So here are some videos of our end-of-the-year Kindermusik celebrations. We are fortunate to have a big backyard, so that we could practice social distancing and keep everyone safe.
