Start Up Costs

Start-Up Costs for Kindermusik Educators
Thank you for inquiring about Kindermusik! We feel that
Kindermusik is the single best decision that a parent can
make for their child and we are excited that you will soon
be a part of their journey. The decision to become a
Kindermusik Educator is an important one and we want
to give you all the tools to make an informed decision.
As a licensed Kindermusik educator, you can expect to pay
an annual license renewal fee in March of each year (the
license fee is currently $129.95). This includes registration
to the annual Kindermusik convention, registration to
Professional Development Seminars, and online training
via audio and visual podcasts and streaming video.
The following shows examples of materials that you will
be using to teach your Kindermusik classes. Not all items
are required, but certainly each item can enhance your
teaching experience. Should you have any questions, please
feel free to contact us at 888-442-4453 between the hours of
9 am– 5 pm EST.
We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Kindermusik’s award-winning marketing team prides itself in creating
inviting, bold, fun materials that can capture an audience. Each of the
items below is available for a great price to help you build your program.
Nothing is required, but everything can help!
What If There
Were a Place?
What if there were a place for you and your baby
where all the little miracles were captured, magnified,
and celebrated through music, movement, touch, and
sounds?
What if there were a place where someone helped you
peek inside your baby’s miraculous little body and brain?
And what if every time you left this place, you took
home treasures from the day and inspiring ideas to
add this joy into your daily routine?
There is a Place...
A weekly class for newborns through 1 ½ years accompanied
by a parent or caregiver.
Incorporates Multi-age Activities: Village introduces multiple levels of activities
appropriate for the different stages of development (lap babies, crawlers, and
walkers) Environments with diverse development stages in the first 1 ½ years create
an optimal learning setting for both children and parents.
Educates Parents: You’ll have a wonderful time in Kindermusik Village classes, and you’ll be surprised by how
much you can learn while having so much fun. Throughout your classroom experience, you’ll learn how activities
contribute to your baby’s development.
Bring Home Music, Books and an Instrument: Play the music from class in the car, at home – wherever
you are with your child. An age-appropriate instrument helps your little one continue her discoveries outside
Kindermusik class. Beautiful books will aid in visual tracking, shape and color recognition, and language
development.
For 30 years, Kindermusik has brought music and movement into the lives of families and young children –
sharing in the total development of each unique child with a joyful, engaging approach to learning.
Research tells us what we intuitively knew all along: cognitive, social, and emotional development begins in a
newborn’s very first days of life, and from the very beginning, we can do much to stimulate that growth in very
natural, loving ways.
