Joy You Can See. Connection You Can Feel.
“The teachers make every class feel fun and welcoming— my kids look forward to it all week!” .
Welcome to Family Jam
A music class that feels like coming home.
Are you looking for something more than just another toddler activity?
Family Jam is Sound Play’s signature mixed-age class for babies, toddlers, preschoolers—and the grown-ups who love them. Designed for families with children ages 0–6, this joyful weekly class blends music, movement, connection, and laughter in a way that feels both magical and grounding.
This is where your child learns to clap to the beat, where your baby finds their voice through melody, and where you—yes, you—discover just how musical you truly are.
This program is perfect for
Families with young children (ages 0–6) who want more than just a weekly activity—they want a shared experience. It’s designed for parents, siblings, and even grandparents who long to slow down, connect through music, and create joyful memories together—no musical background needed.
This Program cares deeply about: The bond between you and your child—it’s not about performance, but about connection, presence, and joy that flows into your daily life. We believe every family is musical, and we welcome movement, emotion, and real life—so your child can explore freely and you can relax and simply be together.
Within six weeks, you’ll see: Your child light up when it’s “music day,” start singing songs from class at home, and engage more confidently with rhythm and movement. You’ll also notice your own confidence growing as music becomes a tool you use to soothe, energize, and connect—at bedtime, in the car, or during a toddler meltdown. And this is just the beginning of the musical journey you and your child will share…
What you’ll love about this program: You’ll love the warmth of our expert teachers, the real instruments and live music in every class, and how easy it is to attend with multiple kids or extended family members. You’ll love how the music stays with you all week, the special moments you’ll share with your child, and the feeling of being part of something joyful, meaningful, and lasting.

Frequently Asked Questions:
1. How long is the class?
Each Family Jam class is 45 minutes long—just enough time to spark joy, build confidence, and create meaningful musical moments without overwhelming young children. It’s short enough to fit into your week easily, but long enough to make a lasting impact.
2. What if my child doesn’t sit still?
They’re not expected to! Our classes are designed for wiggles, big feelings, and curious bodies. Movement is part of the learning process. When children are free to explore, they engage more deeply and grow more confident. We follow their lead—and celebrate it.
3. What if my child doesn’t sing or participate?
That’s totally normal. Some children jump right in; others hang back and take it all in. There’s no pressure to perform. Over time, you’ll see your child begin to participate in ways that feel natural and joyful for them.
4. Is my child too young?
Nope! Babies are welcome from birth. Early exposure to music supports brain development, bonding, and emotional growth. Whether your child is bouncing, clapping, crawling, or cuddling, they’re participating just by being there.
5. Can I bring my older child if school is closed?
Yes! Older siblings are welcome to tag along on holidays, snow days, or during school breaks. We love having extra helping hands—and your younger child will love sharing the experience with their big sibling.
6. Can other family members participate too?
Yes! Family Jam is truly for your whole family. Grandparents, aunts, uncles, and other special people are welcome to join anytime—whether they’re bringing your child or just visiting for fun. No need to check in or ask first. Just come. The more, the merrier!
7. Can adults sit in chairs if they need to?
Absolutely. While most families sit on the floor to move and play together, we understand that’s not comfortable for everyone. Chairs are always available for anyone who needs one—just grab a seat and join the fun however you can.
8. Can I try a class before I commit?
Yes! We offer trial classes if you’d like to test the waters first. And if you enroll and later find it’s not the right fit, you’re covered by our Happiness Guarantee—we’ll refund the unused portion of your tuition. Easy, no stress.
9. What if I miss a class?
We offer unlimited makeups that you can use at any time, in any location—even in future semesters. Our online makeup scheduler makes it super easy to find a time that works for your family. No pressure, no lost value.
10. What if I just want to drop in occasionally?
You can! Drop-ins are $30 and available whenever there’s space in a class. It’s a simple way to try things out or join when your schedule allows. Just book your spot online in advance.
11. How often am I billed?
Just once per semester—no monthly billing, no automatic charges. You’ll pay for the full semester when you register (or a prorated amount if joining mid-semester). It’s straightforward, predictable, and done.
12. Do I need to bring anything?
Nope! We’ve got you covered with all the instruments and materials you’ll need. Just bring yourselves—ready to sing, move, and connect.
13. What if I’m not musical?
That’s actually perfect. You don’t need any musical experience to join. When your child sees you enjoying music, they feel safe and inspired to do the same. This class isn’t about “performing”—it’s about connection, joy, and shared experiences.
14. Do you offer any financial support for families?
Yes. Through our Sound Play scholarship fund, we offer discounts or sliding-scale tuition for families receiving WIC benefits, Early Intervention services, or who are fostering children. We believe every family deserves access to joyful music-making. Reach out—we’ll make it work for you.
