The Beginner Piano Lessons for Kids Book with Online Video & Audio Access by Jay Wamsted was designed to help the absolute beginning student learn to play the piano or keyboard. This step by step course is designed for elementary school-aged children (ages 5-11) and quickly teaches the student to play songs they will know and love. These lessons start by playing with just the right hand and gradually build to adding the left hand thumb and learning how to play with both hands. Song arrangements were carefully selected to provide an easy transition from learning the basics to covering more interesting rhythms, techniques, and musical ideas. The book features standard music notation for each song and exercise along with fingering notation and hand shifts to make the course easier to learn. This method includes online access to over an hour of video instruction that will help the child play with proper form and timing. The video shows the piano, both hands, and the sheet music on-screen at the same time. The audio tracks allow the student to practice and play along with easy songs at two speeds. The slower speed features just the piano playing the song. The faster version includes vocals and other instruments in a performance-like setting. The combination of book, video, and audio make this the easiest to understand piano course for kids available.Songlist: Mary Had a Little Lamb, Ode to Joy, Hot Cross Buns, Jingle Bells, Oh When the Saints, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Rain Rain Go Away, This Old Man, Hush Little Baby, I Have a Little Dreidel, Frere Jacques, Alouette, Yankee Doodle- Watch & Learn, Inc. Review: Great book for beginners. - My son recently got a keyboard and has been using this book to learn the basics. Very easy for him to follow. Review: Amazing!!! - I got this book for my 8 year old daughter who has never played piano before. I gave her the book and walked out of the room for 5 minutes and when I came back she was playing Mary Had a Little Lamb. The book is amazingly easy to understand which was so helpful because I have no musical background and donโt know how to help her if she doesnโt understand. It was so easy that I have started to play the piano myself. This book is really amazing!

Great for beginners
My son had never learned the piano before. I have played in the past, but never really taught him at all because he didn't show much interest in learning or playing music at all. A few weeks before this past Christmas, he mentioned wanting to learn piano, and so I decided to get this book, after reviewing a number of options, including once I had learned from as a child. He sat down on Christmas day, learned how to read music (with only a little help from me) and proper fingering on the piano, all from this book. By the end of the day he had learned "Mary Had A Little Lamb" and I've never seen him more excited to keep learning. He is typically lazy and just wants to play video games, but this book has him excited about piano, and he practices every chance he gets. From what he's learned from this book, he is already (in February) learning to figure out the songs he likes to listen to, all based on the basic skills he picked up from this book.

The cover bends easily
So I read the reviews on this before buying and would like to clarify for people who clearly didnโt play piano before buying this book, the NUMBERS with notes are the fingers your kid should use. 1 is thumb, 2 is index finger, etc. I think itโs great for my son so far and weโve been using the suggestions (heโs 4) to learn where the notes are before we dealt sit down for him to learn to play My only problem is the book doesnโt stay open very well and for some reason the cover has bent open no matter which direction I have it just sitting on the piano. Like it just curled randomly and it was closed when it happenedโฆ

I highly recommend this book for a beginner.
I bought this beginner book for two young girls in my church. I bought them a keyboard because they are always anxious to play mine at church before church begins. The youngest girl (8) loves playing it so much they have a hard time pulling her away. She if following the book, and can play many of the songs. There is a web page where you can watch the man playing the songs, and play along with him.

Missing pages?
I ordered this and one other book as a gift. I came on here to ask a question of other purchasers, but I don't see any option for asking a question on this product. I wanted to ask if it is meant to end at page 45 or if mine is missing some pages. It ends abruptly at "Let's try the cross-over exercise using the left hand," followed by some notes. Seems like a strange way to end a book. Then it is followed by several blank pages. A mistake in printing, possibly? I am a piano player myself and have glanced over it. It seems like an okay book for young kids to start with. I noticed that at the beginning, it says we will only be using the white keys in this book -- just to give you an idea of how basic it is. It is a short book and is pretty adequately named, "beginner piano lessons for kids." This will get them started but will not take them far at all, so plan on having another book to follow with soon.
