It isn’t about the piano... yet. 🎹
Sometimes, we start with movement first.
This young student is tossing Beanie Babies onto a floor piano as he searches for the groups of black keys.
He’s moving, aiming, noticing, and learning keyboard geography without sitting at the piano bench.
That’s intentional play.
Before children can remember where the notes are, they need to experience the patterns in a way that makes sense to their bodies and brains.
The piano comes next.
But first... we move, we notice, and we make it fun.
What helps your child learn best: seeing it, saying it, moving it, or playing it?
