Introduction
As you may already know, Geoff (pronounced Jeff) from Success Music Studio is an expert in multisensory teaching, teaching piano to children as young as four-years-old. However, he has recently expanded to teaching three-year-olds a pre-instrumental music program that ultimately leads into piano lessons.

Best Music Program for Three-Year-Olds: The Need Is Out There for This Music Program
The music program:
- Lately, Geoff has been getting a number of lesson inquiries from parents of three-year-olds as well as the parents of developmentally delayed children who aren’t ready for lessons
- The pre-instrument music program is different from traditional music lessons, incorporating lots of games and singing that are fun while still supporting music learning.
- While some of the activities are just for fun, others work on skills that will be necessary for learning piano and keyboard.
- In addition, the program has a looser structure than music lessons, making it developmentally appropriate for three-year-olds.
- For this age group, the lessons should be in-person (at 12 Linden Rd, Sudbury, MA) instead of online.
Best Music Program for Three-Year-Olds: Is My Child Ready?
Not every three-year-old will be ready for the pre-instrumental music program.
Here are some signs that your child might be ready:
- Can your child communicate well enough to understand, respond to, and follow directions?
- For example, can he follow simple directions, such as, “Place your hands here?”
- Can he count to four?
- Can he identify and name the primary and secondary colors?
- Does he know the names of his fingers? Does he know the song Where Is Thumbkin?
- Can he tell his right hand from his left hand?
- Can he sit and pay attention for five minutes at a time?
Children don’t necessarily need all these skills to start lessons. However, the more skills from the list they have, the more ready they are to start music lessons.

What Purpose Do Accidentals Serve in Reading Sheet Music?
“What purpose do accidentals serve in reading sheet music?” Sharps, flats, and naturals (collectively called accidentals) grew out of a problem that needed to be fixed in the mediaeval music notation. The music theorists of the time slapped their fix onto the preexisting notation system, and that fix is still with us to this day. However, having confused generations of budding musicians, the results of the fix leave a lot to be desired.
