dance. Small Singers and Shakers was the perfect way to introduce music and
movement to my daughter. Stacy provides the perfect mix of familiar and new
songs, all of which are easy to follow."

boys, a four year old and twin one year olds and she incorporates something for
all of them. My four year old especially loves the jam session. It is so great
