She believes that Monkey Music is about creating a fun and bonding experience for children and carers and is passionate about children experiencing music from an early age.
Monkey Music is over 25 years old and was created by professional musicians. Monkey Music has 4 progressive classes, and the music and songs are updated regularly to keep parents and children excited.
The 4 Progressive classes
Rock ‘n’ Roll from 3 months.
This is the baby class, and the babies explore interesting new sounds and instruments, and learn to track objects. In this class their senses are stimulated with colourful props, energetic songs and age-appropriate instruments. We strive to develop their confidence and create an environment wherein carers bond with their baby. The babies engage with each other and experience the fascinating sounds and are stimulated in a multi-sensory way.
Heigh-Ho, from 12 months.
In this class we create exciting sounds together as a group, and encourage our toddler to be mobile, and interact with the catchy songs and rhythms. Through sharing these precious moments, the children are able to develop co-ordination and we focus on listening and language skills.
Jiggety-Jig, for 2+3 year olds,
In this class the children are encouraged to engage with each more closely. They are enabled to be a more central part of the creative process and develop their independence. They are given a platform to play age appropriate instruments, sing and even compose their own songs! Above all it is fun experience where self-confidence is built and children develop musical skills such as rhythm and pitch.
Ding-Dong, for 3+4 year olds.
In this exciting and rewarding class, children are encouraged to learn and read music. They will start to learn the basics of notation and recognise different parts of the orchestra. This is a great introduction for them to enter primary school and to carry music with them into the future!
We currently have classes running in Ely, Cambridge and Littleport, so please contact us to secure your place!

Just as language skills are developed early in life, so is musical talent. Regardless of the level of music aptitude with which children are born, they must have formal and informal experiences in music to maintain that level of potential.
