¡Hola! Wiggleworms celebrates being bilingual! Rooted in traditional folk songs from Spanish-speaking countries around the world, the class is alive with singing, dancing, and musical discovery. Children and their families delight in the musical play of Wiggleworms while they explore the Spanish language and experience the joy of learning language through music.
As your little one grows, together you’ll learn our core songs—a beautiful collection of traditional and contemporary sing-along songs. Expect this class to be full of movement, interaction, and musical play with puppets, shakers, and props as children explore their emerging language skills.
If you are bilingual or just learning the Spanish language, come delight in this musical experience with your little one. You will go home singing together in Spanish. Everyone is welcome to sing and dance!
