1 Hardcover Storybook 1 Coloring & Activities Book 1 Musical CD (15 Songs) 8 Pages of Stickers (169 in all) There's a storybook for reading and stoking the imagination. And, there's a CD that will soon have your kids singing along with Grand Staff. Don't restrict yourself to using them in combination, as Grand Staff & His Musical Friends (storybook and musical CD) is not a read-along where you turn the pages along with the music. The two components work together (the songs on the CD accompany the pages in the storybook). Yet, they stand alone! In the storybook Grand Staff throws a musical party and invites his musical friends to come. As they arrive they introduce their musical names, locations and functions. This familiarizes the reader with the elements of music. The storybook is meant to be read to children by caring parents and teachers, or read directly by children. After reading the storybook the musical CD may be listened to in order to audibly reinforce what was visually learned in the storybook, and vice versa. The musical CD introduces melodies, harmonies, scales, chords, rhythms and beats. It provides lessons in ear training and music appreciation. The characters produce many of the sounds and pitches they represent in music and they sing a variety of songs that blend musical styles including classical, opera, jazz, blues, reggae, rap and country. It is perfect for road-trips and for putting your children to bed at night! Grand Staff's Musical Activities Book gives children an opportunity to apply what they learned from the storybook and musical CD. Children will have fun coloring the musical cartoon characters and learning how to draw musical elements including the grand staff, clefs, alphabet, notes, time signature and bar line! The stickers are a fun bonus for children. However, the musical alphabet stickers (A, B, C, D, E, F and G) have specific applications. These stickers may be used in conjunction with the activities book (by being placed on the appropriate lines and spaces on the grand staff) or they may be placed on the appropriate keys of a piano in the classroom or at home. The bottom line with the stickers is: Kids Love Stickers!
