Music Made Fun & Easy

Deeply Implicit

Educators have long sought to meld instruction with entertainment; after all, learning with laughter is the surest method of imparting a lifelong lesson and is, ultimately, the hallmark of an inspired teacher.

Styled as a friendly letter from a worldwide traveler, A Note for Children introduces children to the whimsical land of “Treble Clef.” There, author Linda Hannah Young creates appealing and memorable characters that demonstrate a variety of simple rhythmic notations—such as the quarter note, Mr. Crotchet, who only walks (walk-walk-walk-walk,) and the half note, Ms. Minim, who only slides (slid-ing—slid-ing.) The imaginative character descriptions are coupled with colorful, computer-enhanced watercolor visuals and simple memory aids that will help children to learn and remember the meanings of different types of rests, notes, and more. Each concept is accompanied by a simple song that lets children practice their new music knowledge.
