Listen to the Harmony & Heart™ Fall Music Collection!

The benefits of music for young children are undeniable. That’s why we created the Harmony & Heart® program, a unique approach designed to help children grow as students, musicians and people. Keep the fun and learning going at home — the first of four original music collections is available now.

Find out what our families are saying...

We have been part of the Primrose Shadow Canyon family for a long time. Our oldest daughter started with Primrose during the summers with Ms. Ashley while in elementary school at Cougar Run. Often, when picking her up, her greeting to us would be, “But I don’t want to go yet!” Our adoration for Ms. Ashley was obviously well placed in a facility which was both safe and encouraged similar values to our own. We have learned just how valuable these lessons are as she has started to grow into a remarkable young woman. We know and see how Primrose has helped her grow.

Grounded in research, fueled by fun

Our new exclusive Harmony & Heart® program integrates our proprietary music and books in a variety of thoughtful ways each day. Through learning about music, while simultaneously being exposed to concepts in math, language, and character development, your child will grow as a musician, a student, and a person.

We LOVE our Teachers!

While there have been many challenges and are more still to come, we are impressed by, and grateful for, your incredible efforts, your creativity and your resourcefulness. Our days may look different know, but the commitment and care that you all provide our students and families does not go unnoticed.
