Riassunto

Three year old twins, Tshepi and Sipho, receive a gift of a piano from their father.. Realising that small children have a natural ability to soak up and store information, their mother spends quality time with them, teaching them the names of some keyboard notes in an interesting and fun way, at the same time developing visualisation skills. She uses the same method to teach them about the stave on which music is written and how to read a few notes. This book will help young children to develop an interest in playing music and with this basic understanding allow them the freedom to choose to eventually study music if they enjoy it. An understanding of music will also help them to be able to listen intelligently to performers playing music. The author felt that the fact that young children have the ability to learn and retain knowledge in their early years, they could develop a love for music through a story book of this type. Valerie has spent many years successfully teaching music to people of all ages and felt inspired to share her knowledge with impressionable young children at home as well as children who attend pre primary, primary and nursery schools. Her aim is to write further books in this series which will steadily become more advanced with the added benefit that children could become interested in playing other instruments as well. Knowledge builds on knowledge. The minds of children is likened to a sponge. The ability to be able to visualise is very natural to the young mind. Learning anything worthwhile at a young age is remembered for a lifetime. As with everything knowledge builds on what is already known. Music knowledge and understanding can be created early in a child’s life through them absorbing a small amount of information at a time. As this awareness develops the mind will easily understand the information that will follow the first book Awareness is created through the Parents, Grandparents or Nursery School reading the story repeatedly to the children at intervals. It will then be easy for the children to understand the subsequent books. Not all of us would like to become aspiring pianists but the information found in this book will also develop good listeners of all types of music and instruments. My inspiration to write the book ‘’First Piano Lesson for Tiny Tots came when two year old Matthew’s grandmother, Wendy told me how he loved music. Wendy asked me if I taught music to children of his age. I told her that I didn’t teach very young children. Children like to have books read to them more than once. I realised that because of this they could easily develop an understanding for music through books.
