This lavishly illustrated story book introduces the very young child to the basic notion that musical sounds can be either high or low, soft or loud, slow or fast, or combined in various ways. These musical concepts are explored via the 'Twins' and 'Triplets' - groups of two and three black keys - to develop the tactile, aural and visual awareness prerequisite to all further music learning. Encourages kids to think in motion, deal with several concepts simultaneously, and be creative.

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.
