Kate, 2y6m

It's been a long break from regular piano, but we are starting again. My daughter now asks for the piano, but still only does something productive for a few minutes at a time at most and bashing it its still fun.

Day1. Mon 26th of Oct.
Session 1: Kate played Surprise symphony by herself, all of it 33/44 in 172s - right hand only, 1 finger only. Then she listened to the Do-Do video and sang as well for about 5 min. She kept asking for it. Listened to youtube video of Surprise symphony as well.
Session 2: 11 points in 30 sec with Guess Key, spider game. Then she lost her patience. Listened to the Do-Do song again for 2-3 min. Then she asked for Treble Staff Game, witch we never played before and she wanted to miss them all as it was so funy to hear mr Ops say Ops. That lasted about 5 min.

Everything is just right! We have this idea of 1/2 - 45 min piano lessons, but little children have to practice the same way as we eat: many times in small portions.

You may play it for her as well. When she will listen to the music in the video, she will recognize the tune.

Then she listened to the Do-Do video and sang as well for about 5 min. She kept asking for it. Listened to youtube video of Surprise symphony as well.

Wonderful!

LOL. Mr. Oops is her friend now! Thank you for posting!

Thanks for your reply.

Day 2.
She didn't want to play to much on her own, as soon as I switched it on she asked for the puzzle game, she just wanted me to miss the location so she can hear Mr Oops. Then she allowed me to play for her Surprise symphony a few times without interfering.

I think, it would help her, if you would play Surprise Symphony for her!

Day 3.
We had the piano on and I played with it only. I played Surprise symphony about 5 times. We listened to some clasical music from a cd.
