Music for your little monkeys

A MUSIC group for parents and pre-school children has been launched in Edinburgh.

Monkey Music's Saturday morning classes let parents join their children, aged between three months and four years old, in learning musical skills.

Rachel Huggins, who runs Monkey Music in Comely Bank, Murrayfield and Corstorphine, said: "Our classes are the perfect opportunity for working mums and dads to spend real quality time with their babies and children.

"Parents shouldn't worry – they're not expected to be a musical expert."

Monkey Music uses 300 songs, games and movement ideas, with the children grouped in small classes according to their age.
