new and overwhelmed

I have been tinkering with the program and have looked at the pages you recommended. My son Rovy remains very interested in the stickers and really likes trying to play Frere Jacques.

For the curriculum, it seems to be organized by month. Should we just pick a few activities every day? I assume that for a 3 year old child, 10-15 min per day is enough?

Play 'by ear' Our goal is to keep them happy and loving music lessons now. Start with little amount of time and build from there.

Regarding a progress diary, I am not sure what are the numbers that everyone records. Is there a page or post that explains what we should note?

There is the number of correct notes on the very left. 0 of 17 meaning YOU PLAYED 0 OF 17 notes. On the right is the number of the time wasted.

So, please, ask your child to play everything twice and write down.
For example:
R 1 *1 stands for first, vertical presentation* 15 of 17 / time 19
R 1 16 of 17/ 10
If you have more correct notes after second time with less seconds wasted, your child is 'double winner'!!!

I give my students 2 flags or butterflies *music money*

Did you have a chance to read more about that here: softmozart.com/forum/20-hellene-hiners-b...rite-a-new-book.html ?

Thank you for your help; I think this program will be very good for the kids.

You are welcome! Happy learning!

Hello, Leslie!
Welcome! I am looking forward to read more about your learning experience.
Here is the list of the piano pieces that we have:

Keep in mind that we created a converter that would allow us to add more piano pieces in the close future.
