I am so excited to see Tune Toddlers on BK, I just adore these CD's! They are definitely worth checking out! Here's a link to a previous review I wrote on Tune Toddlers if you are just now discovering them and want to know more.

[Sarah108]

TmT, am I going crazy? I purchased all three of their CD's, and it's EXACTLY the same lessons, just with SLIGHTLY different background music. The website is misleading, cos it says "Each feature 16 unique songs using today's most popular musical scales. Majors, Minors, Blues, Chromatic, Dominant, Diminished, and Whole scales are played for your baby's delight. Each scale begins in the key of C and progresses through all 12 keys on a grand piano"

so I thought that there were three DIFFERENT CD's - cos that's what one generally sells - different products, not three of the "same"?



WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY!!!!??????????????????????????????????

If I've not gone mad, then I recommend that anyone only purchases one of the three CD's

[arvi]

Sarah, do you and your daughter like atleast one of those CDs. If so, which one would you recommend.

I was thinking that just playing classical music might cover most of the music scales.. Am I wrong?

[Sarah108]

Yes, we do love them.

So what I mean is that the scales they play are all EXACTLY the same, there is just VERY soft background music behind the scales which is different. It's hardly even noticeable. But I guess I'd always go the classical route as backgroumd music.

[TeachingMyToddlers]

Sarah- I'm so sorry you were disappointed! We really like them. We discussed the slight variation here as well, I should have linked it with the original review, it starts on page 2. I have since added a note at the bottom of my review stating the similarities/differences between the CD's.

Tune Toddlers Q &A

Hello to all. There have been many questions about Tune Toddlers CD's recently. I am honored to share my music program with such caring and devoted parents. I created Tune Toddlers for my 3 children to help them develop relative pitch skills. I dedicated a great portion of my life studying voice from the best instructors in the world. The one thing they each had in common were these beautiful scales and arpeggios. I knew how much they helped me develop a deeper understanding of the language of music, and it seemed so evident to me that they would help my children as well. I initially recorded the scales in my studio and produced a CD for my baby daughter. As she grew older, it became apparent that she possessed a natural understanding of music. I went back to the studio and created Baby Maestro for my next two children. This time I added drum beats and symphonic music. I felt that I was finished. Just play Baby Maestro and my children would develop good relative pitch skills. Still, there was something Maestro David Kyle told me many years ago that I couldn't get out of my mind. He said that ALL babies are born with perfect pitch, but lose it if they do not hear music before the age of 4. I began researching the scientific communities for studies on this subject. I found one study after another confirming what the Maestro told me some 30 years ago. "All babies are born with perfect pitch, but will lose it if they do not use it! " Music is a language. Language is learned during the first few years of life. At about 2 1/2 years of age, our brain begins to discard information we don't use. Think of it like a computer cleaning it's hard drive. Absolute pitch skills take up a lot of brain power. Western language is not a tonal language, thus absolute pitch is not required to communicate. This is why only 1 in 10,000 westerners retain this skill. Many eastern languages are tonal by nature. In Mandarin Chinese, the word Ma has four different meanings depending on the pitch used when speaking it. Perfect pitch is common place in China. Scientific studies now say there is a window of time, for a child between 1 month and 6 years old when you are able to teach them to have: perfect pitch, language, and a perfect sense of time.

 This is why I expanded Tune Toddlers from Baby Maestro to include Baby Rocker and Baby D.J. I wanted to share different beats and rhythms too. It is also important for the parents to like the CD's so they will play them for their child. Any one of the Tune Toddler CD's will provide the full range of music ear training a baby needs to retain perfect pitch, develop relative pitch, and instill a perfect sense of time. I found that my children liked to dance around when listening to Baby D.J., Baby Rocker is a high energy CD that is great for play time. Baby Maestro is fantastic for nap time. The most important thing is that the musical information in complete, consistent, accurate, and engaging. Babies love to learn! Tune Toddlers is educational and fun for babies. I am always happy to answer questions about Tune Toddlers. Please contact me at scott@tunetoddlers.com

Since I read that, I changed my preference to Baby DJ over the others to help develop a sense of sense of timing as well as pitch. It's not as important to me that my kids are exposed to the guitar sounds of Baby Rocker.

Hello everyone,

Tune Toddlers is honored to be a part of the Brillkids family. There is nothing more important than early childhood development. Tune Toddlers CD's offer a vital and unique learning experience for children. Music is traditionally taught as a secondary language. Tune Toddlers is designed to teach music as a primary language. Your baby can learn music as naturally as they learn other communication skills. It's a fun and easy way to nurture your child's musical ear.

Tune Toddlers is offered in three musical styles: Classical (Baby Maestro), Rock (Baby Rocker), and Urban (Baby D.J.) The lessons are the same on each, so pick the music style you like best. Some will find additional benefits when using all three. Baby Maestro is wonderful during quiet time, while Baby Rocker and Baby D.J. are more upbeat. Children also like the subtle differences between the CD's. It's like learning the alphabet inside the class room one day, and outside in the park the next. The same lesson feels different and thus revitalizes the child’s interest in the lesson.

“Children naturally love to learn. Kids would rather learn than eat; kids would rather learn than play. In fact, kids think learning is play.”
~Glenn Doman-Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential

[The Maestro]

Some of the neurons in the newborn's brain are genetically hardwired at birth to control vital functions, like breathing and controlling body temperature, trillions and trillions of others "are just waiting to be hooked up and played like orchestra instruments in a complex musical composition. Parents, educators, the babies' early experiences - all these factors will determine which neurons connect and which connections will eventually wither and die from lack of use.
