'Rhythm&Rhyme'

Music Educator, Chelsea Shepherd, returns to Saint Philip’s!

Join Chelsea on the second Saturday of every month when she offers Rhythm&Rhyme classes for 0-5 year olds and their grown ups. Enjoy music and movement that will explore the seasons of the church year during the free classes that will run 9:00am-10:00am in the Children’s Courtyard.

Please RSVP for tomorrow’s class to help make planning easier.

Three of these sessions, including the one on Saturday, October 12, will be in the West Transept so that parents and caregivers can learn how to encourage toddlers and young children to participate in the liturgy in ways that are engaging to them. Chelsea is a gifted educator and this will be a wonderful opportunity.

Open play
At 10:00am—following the Rhythm&Rhyme classes—there will be open play time in the Children’s Courtyard. Mtr Taylor hopes to host some short conversations about the Charlotte Mason approach to educating young children. Her approach is heavily influenced by her Anglican identity, and is renowned.

Saint Philip’s has some families who homeschool, some families who are in a hybrid phase, and some families with small children at home who are looking for structure around their parenting. There is a lot to plumb in Charlotte Mason’s work—so even if your kids are a little older and you’re curious, please consider participating in open play.
