Mini Melodies at Gigi's Playhouse

  • Gigi's Playhouse 11235 Alpharetta Highway Roswell, GA, 30076 United States (map)

Every Tuesday morning, tap into your inner rock star where every voice shines! Music supports the increase of self-confidence, social skills, communication and motor skills. This program is for children ages 0-5 years old diagnosed with Down Syndrome.

This class works on age-appropriate developmental goals while using music. Participants will sing, play instruments, dance, & more! Plus, this class is designed to be fully inclusive, inviting all children to make music together no matter their differences!

Thanks to wonderful donors, this program is completely FREE! Registration is required in advance via Gigi’s Playhouse.

Music therapy interventions for children with Down Syndrome can be designed to encourage:

  • Socialization

  • Self-expression

  • Communication

  • Motor development

Music is processed in both hemispheres of the brain.  Music has the ability to stimulate cognitive functioning and may be used for the remediation of some speech/language skills. Therapy is provided at Gigi’s Playhouse in Alpharetta.

GiGi’s Playhouse Atlanta is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization funded solely by donations, dedicated to providing free therapeutic programming, resources, and support to families of individuals with T21/ Trisomy 21/Down syndrome. Programs at GiGi’s Playhouse Atlanta address the developmental needs of children with T21/Down syndrome, including the areas of gross motor, fine motor, intellectual, social, and communication development.  The earlier aggressive therapeutic interventions take place in these areas, the greater the possibility that GiGi’s participants will achieve a more independent life.
