Tunebugz! Music Together

Music Together is the most enriching program out there for 0 – 5 year olds! TuneBugz and Amber Nichols have touched our hearts and souls with music for 4 solid years now. Our family has so many memories and traditions established with her classes. I promise that TuneBugz will change your life. You may even find it making parenting a bit more fun and productive.

TuneBugz is terrific! Amber is a totally awesome teacher – always sweet, laid-​back, fun, and gets everyone involved – even the grown-​ups! On my way to the demo class, I tried to imagine the ideal teacher. Amber totally fits the bill. She includes every child, is never negative or condescending, and her cheeriness and happy attitude are always very authentic and never annoying. We just signed up for our third «semester» with our 2 year old. We have been going to class since the fall. Our daughter now sings the songs at home, claps, and really gets into the songs.
Music Together is a great curriculum. It is music instruction vs. music entertainment. The songs are fun and entertaining, and Amber very helpfully points out the music principles during class. Different instruments, parachute, scarves, sticks, and bells are used. The adults sing and follow Amber with the movements, while the kids are allowed to do their own thing. They sing, walk around, interact with one another – they aren’t forced to do anything, which is very refreshing. Amber’s spirit of acceptance for every child really makes the atmosphere fun and inclusive. As you can tell, I can’t say enough great things about Tunebugz!

A friend’s recommendation for Music Together and a google search brought me to Amber and Tunebugz. What a stroke of luck! Amber and her music-​magic have done so much for us.
My kiddo and I LOVE this class — everything about it. We started going when my kiddo was just over a year and BUSY. The first class, I was worried when my kiddo wouldn’t sit still in the circle and do everything we were ‘supposed’ to do. However, Amber explained that some kids need to be up and moving; she was very kind and knowledgeable of different learning styles. Amber’s style and material reaches all types of kids — from wigglers like mine to those who sit and observe. One thing that makes this class gold to me are Amber’s nuggets of wisdom — like the learning styles. She enriches the overall experience for kids and adults.
The class itself has tons of variety — kids (and adults) make music with all kinds of instruments, props, themselves and more! Amber emphasizes diversity in music — from different rhythms to a wide range of beats. We all learn a ton without even realizing it!
Amber creates such a fun, lively, educational and nurturing environment in every class. She is ALWAYS upbeat, positive and incredibly kind to every child. This sets the stage for the rest of us adults — we are a little community. I’ve learned a lot from the other caregivers in the group, most who have been TuneBugz/​Amber fans for years. It has also been fun to watch my kiddo interact with them and to do the same with their children. The class is one of the best parts of our week.
We tried a ton of tot-​friendly experiences, from gym class to art and more. But Amber/TuneBugz’s Music Together is the class that stands out way above the rest. The entire experience, from doing activities from class throughout the week, to the actual class is amazing. Amber has given my child and me a common language and foundation through music. I’m so grateful for all the ways this experience is shaping us.

My three (and a half!) year old and one and a half year old love these classes. To me, they are a bit loud, but the kids are who count, so i can handle it for an hour.
Amber’s kids music class is fun and engaging for the little ones. They get to have fun, sing, and be goofy with their parentsw for an hour a week, and everyone spends the rest of the week with the music stuck in their heads and humming it at odd times ;) .
Amber is great at getting the kids to do what is needed (such as putting up the instruments and toys) without them really realizing it’s something they usually wouldn’t want to do. Then the same tricks can be used by the parents at home. Hah!

You will not be disappointed! Amber is so amazing at what she does, and no matter what music talent you do or don’t have, you are bound to have a great time! My daughter loves her, and her face lights up every time she sees Miss Amber!

TuneBugz Music class has become the highlight of our week. I won’t lie, I thought it was a little goofy taking a 3 month old baby to a music class, but I was so desperate for something for the two of us to do during the winter months that I went ahead and signed baby girl up for a 10 week semester that we are now completing.
Amber, the teacher, is so sweet and fun. If she isn’t feeling good or having a bad day, you would never know it. Her attitude is always upbeat and happy.
We have really gotten a lot out of going to these classes even though my daughter isn’t even old enough to hold any of the instruments. She loves just watching the other kids and when we sing the songs at home, she lights up!

I attended a preview class with my 14 month old son and he loved it. Amber is engaging, fun and very talented. We can’t wait for our classes to begin!

My daughter had a great time learning about different musical concepts in a fun and engaging way. The teacher miss amber is a very passionate and talented teacher.

One of my hobbies happens to be photography. One of my good friends happens to be Amber, the teacher/​music guru who runs TuneBugz. She needed some photos for a print ad she is going to run, so I offered up my (free) services.
Anyhoo, I’ve gotta say– I’ve never seen so many different kids in one gathering be so well behaved and focused. As soon as Amber started the class, they started dancing or clapping along with whatever was going on.
The class kind of reminded me of one of those really immersive language courses where the instructor never stops speaking the language. Even when Amber was giving the parents instructions or letting them know what the next activity was, it would be in singsong.
Props to Amber for keeping the Fine Arts alive in our youth!

TuneBugz is awesome and Amber is great. She has a wonderful voice and really knows how to get the children involved.

Amber has the magic.
Your child will glow with excitement about music and song.
You will meet other hip parents and can decide whose garage the kids will have band practice in in 10 years :)
Watch this woman talk and teach kids… watch closely… as she has some sort of Mary Poppins Jehdi Mind Trick ability to get their interest and keep them engaged… then they leave humming the songs and doing the moves they just learned!
**GIFT CERTIFICATES… Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, and friends…
Why not be the person who gifted your fave kiddo with muscial experience and excitement!**

I’ve had the pleasure of visiting with my niece and nephew. What’a treat to see the kids singing and dancing around like rock stars! Amber is really talented and also provides education on how to get your children involved in cleaning and other great stuff. I definitely recommend signing up for a class and watching your kids explore the world of TuneBugz.

My nephews LOVE their music class and LOVE Amber! The eldest is almost 4yrs old, and he’s always loved to sing… so he’s a natural, but i still saw a difference in him after just a couple of classes. He sings more clearly, he enunciates better, and his timing is MUCH better. My youngest nephew started classes when he was about 1yr old and he was painfully shy with strangers, has was even shy with ME, his loving Auntie Sharona! But now, woohoo! He’ll dance in front of ANYbody!
It has been a joy watching my nephews learn and grow under Amber’s excellent (and caring!) tutelage.
