FREE TRIAL CLASS - BOOK YOUR PLACE NOW !
My name is Maggie and I have been running Caterpillar Music classes on the Island since 2006 with the aim of teaching young babies and toddlers vital skills simply by having fun !!
Our lively and interactive classes run Islandwide 6 days a week where your little ones will be inspired to learn.
Caterpillar Music IOW are proud to have received National nominations for "Best Local Activity" and "Most Outstanding Activity Leader for Under 5's" in 2009, 2010 and 2011.
WHAT IS CATERPILLAR MUSIC?
Caterpillar Music offers learning in a fun and relaxed atmosphere where we allow every child to progress at their own pace.
All our classes are carefully structured so that all Under 5's can partake in every activity and classes run at an appropriate pace in order to hold the attention of all the children.
Our songs are exciting and fun and are accompanied by a wide selection of captivating puppets and exciting instruments - the puppets are incorporated into all of our songs and we are able to teach rhythm through use of our instruments.
Caterpillar Music classes are varied week by week in order to stimulate and entertain yet all songs are repeated regulary throughout the term to maintain learning.
THE BENEFITS OF COMING TO CATERPILLAR MUSIC...
The benefits are enormous - your little one will learn many valuable development skills at one of our classes including building on their speech and language, vocabulary and memory skills. In addition to which their confidence and social skills will also be enhanced.
The children who regularly attend caterpillar Music certainly excel and show major developmental skills.
These benefits are ongoing and expected outcomes are children who feel more confident within themselves from having experienced and gained vital skills at a Caterpillar Music class. The children have much to gain and can use the skills they have learnt well into the future.
Most importantly, Caterpillar Music classes are FUN for baby and FUN for you !
Mummies, Daddies and Grandparents love to join in at our lively and interactive classes making them one of the most popular Pre-School activities on the Island.

WHAT OUR MUMMIES SAY ABOUT CATERPILLAR MUSIC IOW...
"My son has been going to Caterpillar Music for over 18 months and he absolutely loves it and even knows that on Thursday it is Caterpillar Music day. Maggie is so amazing with all the children, remembering which are their favourite songs and really taking the time to get the children to join in at their own pace. My son loves it when it is our week for show and tell and we have fun painting, sticking, making or finding things for the theme that week. Joining Caterpillar Music has given both me and my son a new circle of friends who all adore both going to Caterpillar Music and Maggie herself" CLAIRE - SIMON'S MUMMY
"What impresses me most about Maggie is her natural ability to interact and encourage the children. Her never ending energy and enthusiasm keeps the children attention throughout the class, meaning all participate - even my seven month old." ARAN - OLIVIA AND BEATRICE'S MUMMY

"Rufus could not have been more delighted to see Maggie at his birthday party. Maggie fully engaged with family and friends of varying ages and having her deliver such a great session gave Rufus some familiarity within a birthday party situation. This is a birthday we will remember for being filled with music, laughter and fun. Thank you very much Maggie" VIKKI, RUFUS'S MUMMY
"My twins Libby and Jessica had a wonderful time at their Caterpillar Music party for their 2nd birthday. They so look forward to the Caterpillar Music session they attend at their Nursery so it seemed a brilliant idea to have an hour long music party at home with Maggie. They really enjoy the puppets and the musical instruments they play and love doing all the actions to the songs - it's a joy to watch" SAM, JESSICA & LIBBY'S MUMMY

Maggie is a fantastic class leader. She focuses on enjoyment and fun. My son who is now 9 months has loved going along. He joins in and recognises the songs. When I sing them at home he smiles. We both look forward to Tuesday mornings. Sometimes I wonder who enjoys it more?!

Our Grandson loves the singing and dancing...
As grandparents we enjoy taking our fourteen month old grandson to Caterpillar. Our Grandson loves the singing and dancing and interacting with all of the children. He adores Maggie and is never far away from her. Saturday morning is his best day of the week and he has learnt so much from Maggie. He just loves his music.

We love Caterpillar Music so much...
My daughter Imogen has been coming to Caterpillar Music since she started going to her childminder, at about age 1. Her childminder takes her every Friday and she loves it! I also enjoy going to the holiday classes with her which luckily for both of us are usually on a Wednesday (one of my two days off in the week!). I also love taking her on any rare Fridays that I have off of work. At home we quite often have to have the Caterpillar Music CD on and either musical instruments or puppets to play along with too! We love Caterpillar Music so much that Imogen even had a Caterpillar Music birthday party for her 3rd birthday last November.

My daughter Poppy absolutely loves coming to Caterpillar Music classes (as do I). She very rarely sits on my lap anymore, she would much rather be standing up with Maggie dancing along. As for Maggie, well what can I say. She makes the classes enjoyable for both parents and children and I just wish she had been doing it when my older children were little. :)

Maggie!
My daughter Beaux absolutely loves Maggie and Caterpillar Music, on her first class she sat still and looked nervously at the other children. Now she dances around and knows all the actions to the songs. I look forward to the class every Tuesday!!

When we started Caterpillar Music 2 terms ago my daughter was shy and didn’t like interacting with other adults or children. In such a short period of time she has become so much more confident, not only at classes but in everyday life. Maggie is such a wonderful woman who really knows how to interact with children and bring out the best in them. I am so glad that I found Caterpillar Music and Maggie, I only wish I had found them sooner!
My son has been attending since he was 2 weeks old and I am sure he will benefit just as much as my daughter has.
Caterpillar Music is a wonderful class to bond with your children, and to make new friends.
I high recommend Maggie, and Caterpillar Music.
