Our Story
At Third Space Play, we believe that music is more than just notes and rhythms—it’s a way for children to express themselves, build confidence, and develop lifelong skills. Founded by Kenzie Gray and Leah Harris, our program blends Montessori principles with play-based learning, creating a unique and engaging approach to music education.
Music has the power to transform lives, and for Kenzie and Leah, it started as a personal journey of discovery and growth. Their passion for teaching, combined with their love for music, led them to create Third Space Play—a place where children can explore music at their own pace, in a way that’s fun, natural, and empowering.
