KinderBach Preschool Piano Lessons

Music is something my little boys love....so does my entire family, but our little ones, twin boys age 6 have  imitated playing all kinds of instruments!  So when I received a subscription for online piano lessons from KinderBach for  TOS Homeschool Review Crew I was really excited for them.

 

KinderBach is a music program for young children 3-7 years. You will need a piano or keyboard to do the lessons.

KindderBach is a tried and proven method of teaching young children to play piano and read music. They will also learn intervals, rythm, and music patterns all with really cute and fun characters.

In the first lesson the boys learned about the black keys and sang a song :)  they then worked on a worksheet that reinforced what they had learned. They loved it! They giggled , had fun...oh and they LEARNED, that makes me happy I want them to enjoy music and have fun in the process, this program offers excactly that.

 

There are 6 levels and each level lasts 10 weeks ( over 240 lessons). KinderBach  is available as either an online program or you can purchase DVD lessons.

Online lessons are$7.99/month

DVD and CD packages start at $40.45/per level

Maestro Classics

Maestro Classics  is the publisher of a series of CDs that put orchestral music together with classic stories. This award-winning classical music series for children and families from Maestro Classics has done an outstanding job of combining music appretiation with great stories.

I received a CD: The Tortoise and the Hare to review as part of the TOS Crew. The CD contains several tracks,  the story with music, information on the story, Aesop, and fables and a discussion of the moral, an explanation as to how the music was chosen to fit the story, and a sing a long song.. There is also colorful activity booklet that comes with the CD with great information on instruments, the orchestra, notes and time signatures,crossword puzzles and more.

I was really impressed with this CD. The narrator was excellent and the music fantastic. My kids listened to the CD willingly enough, but after the explanations were eager to listen again with "new" ears! Though all my kids listened to the CD, my youngest ones 5-10 enjoyed it the most and have in fact listened to the CD many times.

Maestro Classics has several tiles available including:
