Why come to our camp?
Get your kid involved in an instrument from a young age. They will be able to take away that musical knowledge and experience and use it for the rest of their lives!
At Taste O' Music's Summer Camps, kids can try out different instruments to find out which one they like the best! We take away the hassle of having to figure out which instrument your kid wants to pursue so that you don't have to worry about finding the most suitable instrument for your child!
‼️PARENTS‼️
Do you struggle with motivating your kid to practice their instrument? Here's why:
In order for kids to posses the motivation to make progress and practice daily, they must be genuinly interested in their instrument. At Taste O' Music, kids can explore various musical apparatuses before officially pursuing them, which is beneficial! In this camp, kids can finally get the musical exposure to find instruments they are riveted by and passionate about without having to commit to something like private lessons, so sign your kid up today!
Additional Info
Safety/COVID Protocols: In between each use, instrument mouthpieces, handles, and keys will be sanitized with certified instrument sanitizer sprays and wipes.
Our COVID protocols are similar to public schools' COVID protocols. Masks will be optional for campers and counselors. Campers must show no COVID-19 symptoms upon arrival at camp each day.
Group sizes: Each mini group will consist of a 3 camper to 1 counselor ratio so kids can get the attention and guidance they need to have a fun and memorable experience!
This will also allow for social distancing and minimize overcrowding and the risk of exposure of viruses.
