Podręcznik przeznaczony jest dla dzieci rozpoczynających naukę w wieku 5-6 lat. Materiał podzielony jest na cztery części. Pierwsza zawiera duety dla ucznia i nauczyciela, opracowane z wykorzystaniem metody beznutowej oraz proste utwory do grania z nut. Wiele z nich to piosenki, których proste teksty służą oswojeniu z nowymi zagadnieniami i ułatwiają ich zapamiętanie. Druga część poświęcona jest nauce gry legato i ćwiczeniu niezależności rąk, wprowadzane są dwudźwięki i trójdźwięki. Część trzecia to zbiór utworów podsumowujących, w których wprowadzone wcześniej techniki pojawiają się w bardziej zaawansowanej formie, a ostatnia to wybór miniatur dydaktycznych kompozytorów różnych epok. Większość utworów zamieszczonych w publikacji skomponowała autorka podręcznika. Zróżnicowała je pod względem wyrazu (walce, marsze, polki czy kołysanki) i nadała ilustracyjny charakter tak, by bez trudu rozbudzały wyobraźnię dziecka. W wielu utworach pobrzmiewają delikatnie dysonansowe współbrzmienia. W podręczniku wykorzystana jest metoda pracy polegająca na grze dziecka w duecie z nauczycielem, pojawiają się również ćwiczenia a vista oraz improwizacje. Publikacja zawiera ponadto zestaw podstawowych gam oraz mały słowniczek muzyczny.

The perfect series to get beginners playing today! This book/CD pack will teach the absolute beginner how to play the piano at their own pace, and in their own style. The CD includes audio instruction as well as accompaniment tracks.

The short, lively, and easy-to-master selections in this book offer beginning piano students musical experience that is entertaining as well as rewarding. Each selection in this companion book to the Robert Pace Keyboard Series reinforces concepts of the core books, including: • Practice in line, space, and pattern recognition; in performance of basic rhythms; and in indentification of these rhythms both by sight and by sound; • A sparking of the student's imagination, as the student is guided to expand upon each piece in this collection and create his or her own improvisations and compositions; • Lasting fun, becasue the reinforcement of reading, writing, and listening skills supports ongoing musical learning and enjoyment. The CD provides many helpful functions, including modeling the music, providing ensemble playing experience, and tracks in various tempos for practice and performance.

This book is to be used in conjunction with Moppets' Rhythms and Rhymes, teacher's Book.
Moppels' Rhythms and Rhymes is a collection of game songs set to strongly rhythmical verses (some Mother Groose) for children from four through seven. While this may seem like a wide age span, Rhythms and Rhymes Teacher's Book explains how the various activities can be used to suit several levels of development.
Rhythms and Rhymes focuses on strengthening the children's innate sense of rhythm and their understanding of melodic direction through body movements, the use of the piano keyboard, rhythm instruments and rhythmical poems and games. It should be used with groups of at least four.
Although the book is planned specifically as a part of the Music for Moppets pre-piano course to be given in the teacher's own music studio, it can also be used very effectively in nursery school, kindergarten, and first grade.
On completion of the Music for Moppets course, the children should be well prepared to continue in a more formalized study for piano, or any other instrument.

This book, combined with "Reading and writing" presents a balanced musical diet for the young piano beginner. From the outset, the student learns to transfer his newly acquired knowledge to many slighty different but related situations. Sequential organization of materials enables the student to understand what he is learning and to communicate this to his peers in good group instruction. As each new concept or idea is explored, the student can actually teach it to himself and his partners in the group interaction. Individuality and creative expression are crucial components of this learning experience.
