The book is very nice, but in language far above the target audience of 4 to 8 y/o's, such as using the word "naval" rather than "belly button." Using "abdominal muscles" rather than "tummy". Seems more of a book a teacher would use and then reinterpret depending on the child's age. The example photos of poor and good posture are strangely similar with the exception of a flexed knee (poor) and straight legs (good) - and microphone position, which has little to do with anything. I'm much much happier with the cute little snake pictures which are colorful and vibrant.Lesson one covers a description of "how we sing" including a basic anatomical diagram of the diaphragm, lungs, etc. Then there are small sections on posture, breathing, breath control and discussion of a "melody". A paragraph about "aiming" the voice is interesting. From there, beginning with lesson two is music theory. There is a focus on "sol-fa" and as notes are demonstrated on the "keyboards" the corresponding solfege is also provided. The songs included are less examples for singing technique than examples for sight-reading information provided. For a "singing lesson" book, this book falls far below what is needed to teach singing. There is no attention given to vowel sound production at all. The "singing portion of the book is Lesson 1 only. Rename the book "Learning to Read Music for Beginners" and it would be good. Make the language more age-appropriate at you could keep the age range 4-8. Very good information, but poorly produced and compiled.
This helped with a singing class I have begun teaching. It is an excellent product for teaching young singers the art of singing!
Only book with bright illustrations and simple instructions for teaching sight reading and singing correctly to kids.
This is a nice, age appropriate curriculum!
