|  | We are all about providing fun, exciting, stimulating quality music education for babies and young children, through our classes, parties, C.D.s, DVDs and other productions! We strongly believe in the huge benefits that babies and young children gain from good quality music provision - it not only increases awareness, concentration, mathematical ability, speech development and more but also encourages fitness through movement and dance. Child education experts have always appreciated these benefits and the government are now realising it to and are trying to promote pre-school music to all. Music is the universal language of all children and unites children from all backgrounds and abilities, breaking down all language barriers and encouraging social interaction and friendship. Thousands of children come to our weekly half-hour classes in various venues across South London. Many of them book us to entertain at their birthday parties too! We are highly regarded and valued by local nurseries and preparatory schools where we also provide music. If you are a nursery or preparatory school and would like more information please phone us or click on the link here. |
Music is one of the most rewarding things and every Wednesday evening Tin Pan Annie and her son, Harry, are the house band, playing live for two hours on Radio Lollipop at Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital. It doesn't get more rewarding than this!
As part of Annie's degree in physiology and biochemistry, she studied brain developement and became fascinated by the importance of external influences in early childhood, particularly interesting to her was the importance of music as she herself was a very talented musician. Alongside her studies, Annie's years of teaching experience, musical background, holiday work as a children's entertainer whilst at University and, perhaps most importantly, being a Mum, has helped Annie to develop a structured, lively programme of classes with simple concepts and a formula that works, alongside the highly acclaimed Tin Pan Annie Music C.D.s, books, DVDs and other merchandise. The Tin Pan Annie brand is really strong and adored by girls and boys alike. We are developing more characters to join Tin Pan Annie's band and brand developments and hope to launch nationwide later this year, together with Annie's original books including the Tin Pan Annie doll and exciting music books.
