Pip Squeaks

What is Pip Squeaks?

Pip Squeaks is a music and movement group for preschoolers (ages 0-5 years) and their carers. We meet Tuesday mornings during school term from 9.30-11.00am at our church building. Together we sing, clap, shake, make music, dance and play.

The program

We begin Pip Squeaks with singing, clapping, movement, and an exploration of child-friendly musical instruments and toys. This is followed by a Bible story and a ‘think spot’ for the adults. The music program is designed to develop a lifelong love of music, singing and rhythm and early musical concepts.

Morning tea is provided, followed by free play inside or outside.

Parent/Carer involvement

We encourage all parents and caregivers to participate as much as possible. Your child will follow your lead and love having fun with you while we all sing, clap and make music. Please be mindful that side conversations can be distracting during the program. There will be plenty of time to chat over morning tea.

Registration

Pre-registration is not required. When you arrive for the first time, we will ask you to fill in a contact form. And each week, please sign in using our paper form.

A weekly gold coin donation (or approx. $20 per term) is appreciated to help cover the cost of morning tea and resources.

Our current theme

Our sessions are grouped by theme and that theme changes roughly every 3 weeks. We sing songs about topics like The Farm; My Body; Colours; Holidays; Easter; Around the House; and Christmas.

You can find our playlists on Spotify, if you’d like to sing along at home or in the car.
