Our family absolutely loves Notasium. Our first experience was years ago at their Durham location. I was so thrilled when they announced that they were opening a branch in Cary. The play space is huge, clean, and fun. They have bounce houses, a giant guitar slide, and a lot of other music related activities. They have karaoke and a percussion room where kids can bang on pots and pans and make a lot of noise. The employees are super friendly and inviting (I'm looking at you, Jenna!), and really make you feel at home. They do a great job of keeping rowdy kids in check and enforcing rules, but not in an overbearing, critical way. My eldest (age 11) has been taking piano, voice, and violin from Robin for a while now and absolutely loves it. Robin is patient and isn't too chastising when my daughter doesn't practice as she should. We've seen great progress, and my daughter looks forward to her lessons. She's participated in two recitals and looks forward to performing. My second eldest (age 7) decided he wanted to play trumpet. He's been working with Aaron for a few months now and is always super excited and motivated to attend his lessons. I love that all of the instructors are laid back and meet the kids where they are. They teach at an appropriate level and are super encouraging. Notasium is cool because there are discounts for siblings and play, so when our big kids are taking lessons, our little kids can play in the play space. Our whole family enjoys music lesson nights! Now, in the days of isolation and quarantines, they've started conducting their lessons online, and that works incredibly well. The lessons are well thought out and go off without a hitch every week. The lessons are definitely a welcome break in some of the monotony. We've done birthday parties at Notasium as well, and like everything else, they're wonderful. We can't wait until the world is back to normal so we can get back to playing at Notasium, and until then, we'll enjoy our virtual time with their fantastic instructors!

  It is a great place for your young children to explore music.

  We celebrated my daughters birthday here! Both adults and kids enjoyed themselves. The staff was helpful, attentive, and accommodating. Definitely upgrade to the concert package! I will be celebrating future birthdays here for my other children.

  Jenna the manager was super nice on our first visit and gave us an extra good deal we didn’t even ask for. The playspace is awesome and has generous hours. Super clean and open and fun. Highly Recommended!!

  My kids LOVE this place! There's nothing like this anywhere I've lived, with everything being music-themed. I enjoy it as much as they do!
