Music Education that Celebrates Individuality
At Fairfax United Methodist Church, we understand that every child is unique, with their own interests, abilities, and learning styles. Our Children's Music program embraces and celebrates this individuality, providing opportunities for children to discover and develop their talents.
We offer a range of classes and activities tailored to different age groups:
Toddlers (Ages 2-4)
Our toddler music classes are specially designed to introduce young children to the joy of music. Through age-appropriate songs, rhythmic exercises, and movement activities, toddlers explore basic musical concepts, develop coordination, and enhance their cognitive skills.
Elementary Schoolers (Ages 5-10)
For elementary school children, we offer engaging music lessons that incorporate singing, playing instruments, and learning about music theory. Our experienced instructors guide children through foundational musical skills, helping them develop their musical abilities and nurture their love for music.
Tweens and Teens (Ages 11-17)
For older children and teenagers, we offer more advanced music classes that aim to develop their vocal or instrumental skills. Whether they aspire to be a part of our church choir or explore music as a personal passion, our program provides a platform for growth and self-expression.
The Impact of Children's Music on Faith Development

- Express and explore their emotions
- Facilitate a connection with God
