Here are some possibilities for bartering in exchange for reduced tuition:

 
Help set up or clean up the classroom

Come in a few minutes before your class, and help set up.  This may involve moving some tables or chairs, setting up instruments, making sure the space is child-safe, etc.  Or stay a few minutes after class, and restore the space to its regular setup, wash instruments, and put them away.

 Special events

Spend part or most of a day in a Music Together^® booth at a local festival.  You’ll supervise children’s play with Music Together instruments, and hand out brochures and other free materials to parents.  You don’t have to do any selling, just enjoy being with children and their grownups, and playing with the Music Together songs.  Dates are available throughout the year.  This is a lot of fun! 

Deliver brochures

Drop in at pediatricians, children’s clothing stores, coffee shops, and any other places you can think of where parents of young children go, and ask to leave a few brochures at their front counter.  No selling involved, and you can do this while you’re doing your own errands.

Research

Help locate playgroups, neighborhood associations, Mother’s Day Out programs, etc.  This is a great at-home barter possibility, especially if you’re good at internet searches or networking. 

 Your own talents…

Are you gifted at photography, scrapbooking, sewing, using computers, writing, cooking, party planning, or maybe something else unusual and wonderful?  (It may seem ordinary to you, but wonderful to me!)  Let’s talk about barter possibilities!
