music program for babies in seattle with teachers and story time

JazzSprouts is a jazz education program designed for children 8 months to five years old. Our 45-minute classes engage both the child and caregiver, through live music, dancing, story time and a racially-diverse curriculum. Families learn the core concepts, instruments, and great performers of Jazz, a vital Black American art form. 

“This is a really special early music education experience. Your child will be exposed to a new genre of music as well as instruments. They are wonderful with children! ”
— JazzSprouts Parent
