Hellene, thanks soo much for the quick and detailed replies. These words mean a lot esspecially coming from a piano teacher who has experiences with teaching little kids. So inspite of my delayed replied, I read them very closely the first day you posted.

She definately wants to be a good student, the other day she surprised me by trying Hot Cross Buns with Left hand, the way I was doing, she was trying with the correct fingers too. Her scores for both hands improved as well. (I always forget the exact numbers) She tried all the games for a while. I need to practice everyday so she does also.

Great Software... I also wish there was some way to change the background or change the characters for the kids. hint...a suggestion for next time

I hope to buy another one for my nephew, he is 7 years old and I was showing him some simple songs on the piano without the software and he was mastering them in no time. But for him I would like to get the software for when it is updated to add our favorite songs, any hints Hellene as to when that might be?

Thanks again,

Показала ему кружочки, это наши виртуальные музыкальные деньги, на заработанные 5 денежек, можешь купить у меня в "магазине"1 конфетку.Урок был потрясающим, играл двумя руками и не один раз, чтобы набрать нужное количество очков, точнее играть без ошибок ( Софт Моцарт)Затем спросил, что нужно, чтобы заработать сестрёнке Лидусе и маме по конфетке? Выучил ещё несколько песен. Мальчику 7 лет, раньше на все просьбы повторить второй раз песенку, играть отказывался, не хочу, не буду, не получается.

Showed him the circles, this is our music virtual money, earned five denezhek, you can buy me a "store" 1 konfetku.Urok was awesome, playing with both hands and not a time to collect the required number of points, more play with no errors (Soft Mozart) then asked what it takes to earn Liduse sister and mother on candy? Learned a few more songs. The boy is 7 years old, before all requests to repeat the second song, refused to play, do not want, I will not work.

Когда ученик ошибается и приходит паучок, говорю, ты же добрая девочка, умница, угостила паучка фруктами.

When a student makes a mistake and comes a spider, I say, you're a good girl, good girl, treat spider fruit.
