Hi,
I managed to update to 2.6 and was wondering if there is a new 1 year plan to advice the order in witch all they new introductory songs to be learned.
If not can you tell me what songs to start with for my 24 month old girl? And how long should I stay on 1 song? And if she doesnt like some songs should i try them until she starts liking them or just skip them?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry for missing your post!
Here you can download the Soft MozartTM List of songs by Levels: http://softmozart.com/forum/28-share-print/9072-26-list-of-songs-by-levels.html#9072 . It will guide you through practice if you follow the levels and sections.

A New Year's Tree is a bit difficult. I would leave it at last regarding the Introductory Songs. Hot Cross Buns, Jingle Bells, French Song - these are the ones to start.

It is always good to change songs and come back to old ones from time to time. Pick another album. Try the "First Steps". I've just started it with Alin and he likes it. 'Drummer' is very easy and enjoyable, at least for him :P

:cheer:
That's how we started too, and Alin was older! Wonderful!
She will start to love it and will want to be independent and learn to do it by herself ;)

Hmm... Have you tried telling her we need to make all the buterflies flap their wings and fly to their home to their family or something similar? When I can't convince him to play for the sake of playing, I try to tell him a story about the characters we see on screen. And usually it works ;)

Alina, here's a video of how to do it:




( :silly: I always forget to suggest that because I always give Alin and me the challenge to play it all :P He wants this and he wants to play both hands. I give him the entire song, but in songs I think are too much to play P from the first time I choose and then keep an eye on him to play each hand :) .)
