I love going to Hollywood Bowl. The venue, warm weather, people, music and food… what is there not to like?
Hollywood Bowl offers classes for little ones and here is the description of the program and its’ 2011 schedule.
SummerSounds, our popular music and arts festival for kids at the Hollywood Bowl, returns with a musical journey through Los Angeles, one of the most exciting cities in the world, where diverse cultures influence and enrich one another in unique ways. Each SummerSounds program features live music and dance, plus art workshops guided by professional artists.
This season’s lineup includes:
The Korean Classical Music and Dance Company (July 5-15) – authentic Korean music with unique instruments and exciting, elegant fan dances Sylvia St. James & the St. James Singers (July 18-29) – joyful gospel music Ken O’Malley (August 1-12) – a feisty blend of traditional and new Irish folk music

I considered sending my little bean to Delphi Academy until Lawrence Wright’s New Yorker article came out titled The Apostate regarding Church of Scientology. If you haven’t read it, please do. It’s a great but LONG article.
That article made me pause a little about sending Little M full time at Delphi, but maybe Summer Camp program looks great! She’s only 2, and Delphi’s summer camp is for kids between 4 and 11 years old so she won’t be able to attend for another two years.
