No two weeks are ever the same at Music Bugs! Our franchisees and session leaders have so many wonderful props, songs and activity ideas at their disposal, to ensure that the class is great fun every single week for both you and your child. During a typical 40-minute class, you and your child will enjoy, nursery rhymes, silly songs, knee bouncers, counting songs, body percussion, marching songs, tickling songs and so much more! Often there will be an exciting weekly theme such as ‘Jungle Adventures’, ‘Dinosaurs’, ‘Bugs and Beasties’, ‘Animal Safari’. You and your little one will also have lots of fun together with our fantastic props; too many to mention here but puppets, hobby horses, parachute games, sensory props, percussion instruments, role-play costumes, light up props and so much more! Our session leaders have so much fun planning their amazing weekly sessions and can’t wait to share the joy with you and your family.

In many areas, session leaders run additional classes during the school holidays such as Easter and during the Summer Holidays. Please check with your nearest session leader for further details.

Of course, we would love to be able to welcome you and your child to our classes. We understand that all children are unique and have varying needs. You are welcome to come along for a class visit prior to booking to see whether you think the session will be suitable.

Yes, younger siblings are welcome to attend class with their older brother or sister, providing spaces are available. Do discuss this with your session leader before attending. Younger siblings under the age of 12 months are often able to attend with an older sibling free of charge.

We understand the extra practical challenges that come with having twins or multiples (our Company founder is a mum to twins herself), so do contact your session leader to let them know whether you have any particular needs or concerns. They’ll be able to answer questions such as “will a double pram/buggy’ fit through the door?” “Will I be able to bring another adult to help me during class?” We will hopefully be able to put your mind at ease and welcome you into class.

Make sure to also ask whether any discounts are available to parents of multiples.

Discounts for younger siblings and twins may be available in your area. Please contact your session leader for further information and to check availability.

PAYG spaces may be available in some areas. Please contact your session leader for further information and to check availability.

In some areas, it might be possible to do a taster session. Please contact your session leader for further information and to check availability.

Yes, you can join at any time during the term providing we have a space available for you. Please contact your session leader for further information and to check availability.

We like to think so! Many parents tell us how much they enjoy the one-to-one time with their baby and benefit from learning some lovely new songs and activities which can then also be enjoyed at home. Firm friendships are also often established in our Music Bugs classes which then continue to blossom for years to come.

For the vast majority of our venues, wheelchair accessibility should not be a problem at all. Please contact your session leader in advance and we can discuss this further with you.

Guide Dogs and Assistance Dogs are always very welcome to attend our classes (subject to gaining permission from the venue). Please contact your session leader to notify them of your need to bring a Guide Dog/Assistance Dog.

For health and safety reasons, we ask you not to bring food or snacks into class. Some snacks can pose a choking risk or allergy risk to other children.

We do provide mats in most venues for you to sit on the floor. However, if you would prefer to sit on a chair, that shouldn’t be a problem at all and chairs should be available in most venues. Please check with your session leader before attending class.

Absolutely! Our sensory class environment often proves irresistible to the babies and toddlers within our classes, and it is natural that they will want to explore. Providing your child is fully supervised and safe, it isn’t a problem at all.

We love welcoming partners, family and friends into our classes. Occasionally, there may be a restriction on numbers depending on venue size and fire safety regulations, so please always check with your session leader first before bringing someone with you (in the majority of cases, it will be absolutely fine)

We support all breastfeeding mothers, and you are welcome to feed your baby during class or move to a quieter area of the venue if you prefer. Please let your session leader know if you need any help (such as a glass of water or a chair) and they will do whatever they can to help you.
