Mish Mash Music for 0s-5s St Albans

"Mish Mash music has been absolutely amazing for us. It's been consistently the favourite thing for both my children. 1. The music. Ruth writes her own music. It's enjoyable and refreshing to hear new material in the kids music genre. Plus some of the songs are really beautiful. The CDs are super helpful for car journeys too. 2. Learning to use such a wide range of musical instruments has been so enjoyable for my children and they continue to be keen to make music. 3. Ruth is brilliant at dealing with different personalities and it really helped my shy children to come out of their shell. She's super kind and good at understanding people. Both my children still hope to 'go to Mish Mash!' on inset days. 4. It's not why we did Mish Mash classes: but meeting like minded people has been an added bonus. We've been holiday with our Mish Mash friends and still have group play dates and adult get togethers. Thanks Ruth, meeting you and doing Mish Mash has been one of the best things about having our young children in St Albans! "
