I've just downloaded this program and wanted to try it out immediately with my daughter who is 10 months. She was simply mesmerised ( which for her, being a very physically active child, is amazing) and I'm sure she was trying to sing along by the end of it and did try to clap with the clap along and that's after only one session. I'm classically trained in both voice and piano from a pretty young age with piano. I remember how difficult it was for both me and my teacher as I was pitch perfect and could play by ear but was not allowed to do this as I had to read it from the sheet music first, along with many other issues along the way, despite the fact that I completed my 6th grade music exams I became very disillusioned with music in general and barely played for years after I stopped taking lessons. These days I play mostly by ear and barely ever read the sheet music. I think this sort of system is a far better way to teach music so that children can appreciate and simply enjoy it.
