Hello! I'm Lisha and this is Laughing Cricket Music!  Laughing Cricket offers music and movement classes for Outschools' youngest learners.  It is an inclusive, interactive, warm and happy space, where learning happens in a fun and organic way.  Together, with my puppet friends, we sing both original and popular children's tunes, helping to build a solid sense for music appreciation.  The song and dance of Music is a vital and important step in every child's development.  In our classroom, we will use music as a tool to help develop and Improve our fine and large motor skills, manage our everyday emotions, build self confidence and self esteem, encourage teamwork, and develop a good sense of rhythm and pitch.  Most importantly, we will laugh, smile and dance! 
I am a trained jazz vocalist, and have spent the last 15 years as a professional Children's Musician in a wide range of capacities. I am passionate about sharing my music and heart with your little ones and bring the knowledge I have gained as a musician, mother and educator with me to every class.  Please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have.  I look forward to singing together with you, and in the meantime-- dance to the sound of the song in your heart!
