Are there any children choirs for reception age?

I heard people here saying their reception-age children in some children choirs. I struggle to find any for that age. All the 'children' or 'youth' or 'junior' choirs seem to start from age 7.

PS: in West London

Has your dc expressed a particular interest or natural talent in singing?

Some schools have them.

My dd sung from 6, but only because her older sibling was in the choir - it was a requirement to be able to read.

I teach kids choirs from 7 plus (6 if there are siblings in the choir already). They are really too young before that. You could find some kind of musicianship class for them.

At that age a class using Kodaly/ dalcroze methods or similar with music and movement, singing and games would be better than a straight choir.
