About
Little Rockers – music & arts play center offers kids’ music classes, music development classes, Baby Band music class for infants, and an interactive rock concert experience. The program also offers in-person and online music lessons, including private instrument lessons, guitar, voice, and ukulele lessons, along with kids party entertainment and summer camp shows. Families can also access interactive music classes on YouTube, a web series produced in the Little Rockers Clubhouse, and creative music videos, as well as Summer Camp for Littles (Music & Arts Camp).
• Ages: 0–7 years old
• Schedule: Music & Arts Camp and CAMP LITTLE ROCKERS run as daily half-day camps Monday–Friday 9:00am–12:00pm in June, July, and August for ages 3–7 years old, with class options Monday–Saturday mornings including one-time daily drop-ins or monthly memberships; Baby Band for ages 0–12 months meets Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 11:30am.
Little Rockers – music & arts play center describes its teachers as talented and specializing in working with younger kids. The founders are Chris and Jessie Apple, and Jessie’s mother, singer/songwriter Nancy Hartline, provides songwriting input, with the team composing and producing all of the class music and curriculum themselves. The program’s educational philosophy states that music is a universal way for humans to interact and bond, that music fosters cooperation, understanding, positivity and joy, that families who share music making are closer and more connected, and that children learn best through play when everyone is playing and having fun. The philosophy also states that music aids and enhances intellectual, emotional and social growth, that repetition is crucial for young minds while variety keeps parents engaged, that making time for music is one of the best gifts a parent can give a child, that children are impartial to musical styles, and that pop and classic rock music are used for shared musical experiences, with the belief that no one is too young or too old to rock out.
The program brings a high-energy, interactive rock concert experience and interactive shows to schools, libraries, camps, community events, and corporate fun days. Available information notes accolades and awards, though no specific awards are listed.
Parent testimonials describe instructors as engaging, patient, and fun with the kids, and mention that the facility is described as so clean. One parent reports attending since their child was 6 months old and later moving up to private guitar lessons and booking birthday parties, and another parent describes a party there as “the most incredible party” and says friends and family talked about what a great afternoon it was.
