Piano Games for ages 4-6 is a pre-piano skills class for young children to learn music through songs, games, and chants at the piano. This class is not formal piano instruction but uses the Keyboard Games Books A & B as curriculum as well as pattern songs from Piano Safari and other sources. These activities prepare children who are interested but too young for lessons by introducing them to music concepts and reinforcing basics skills needed for playing piano and other instruments.

Tonya uses the curriculum First Steps in Music for Infants and Toddlers and First Steps in Music for Preschool and Beyond from the
Feierabend Association for Music Education along with supplemental material from common children’s songs, folk songs, classical music, chants, and poems. Students will sing, dance, and play instruments in every class. As a music therapist, Tonya feels it’s important to encourage communication, motor, social, and academic skills through the same songs that teach musical skills (understanding/demonstrating beat vs. rhythm, singing tunefully, moving artfully, etc.).
