Immerse yourself and your little ones in a world of enchanting sounds. Families will embark on an auditory adventure, exploring the unique melodies produced by various instruments such as flutes, clarinets, oboes, bassoons, and French horns. Through interactive sessions led by San Diego Symphony musicians, parents and children alike can enjoy sing-alongs, rhymes, dances, and musical games designed to introduce young listeners to the symphony's instruments. The concerts are tailored for families with children aged 0-5, ensuring a delightful and engaging experience within a 30-minute timeframe.
These events go beyond just music; they offer a comprehensive sensory experience. Attendees are encouraged to arrive early to participate in pre-concert activities that include hands-on crafts and instrument exploration. Collaborating with ChIMES, these activities aim to provide a rich, interactive environment. Concerts are specially designed to be sensory-friendly, offering amenities like a quiet room, sensory kits (available upon request), and social stories to support families during their visit. Partnerships with organizations focused on developmental disorders further enhance the accessibility and inclusivity of these events.
The symphony not only entertains but also educates and nurtures young minds. By fostering an appreciation for music from an early age, these concerts inspire creativity and curiosity in children. They create a welcoming space where families can bond over shared experiences, promoting a love for arts and culture that can last a lifetime.
