My son can’t read music yet, and he has just learned the key of C. He is in a beginning piano book and I bought all 3 of them. It has a lot of activates, but only a few song. I have him color the notes and stuff like that but not songs. It has 1 basic song each unit and he would like to apply his learning more then that. Is there any free songs on the internet I could print out in the key of C, no chords, and not reading music yet?
Thanks,
Kelsi

Easy does it mom! Step by step. Don't deter from the program. You said HE would like to apply his learning more than he is. If he has accomplished his lessons then continue with the next lesson. He will seek his own level soon enough. Don't introduce new material. Most books are taught in progression with a reason behind it. Stick with the books.

I know nothing about Piano ;) Just wanted to make sure you read my response to your question with my last post on Mommas boys :)
Thank you so much (as always) for your answers and insight... I would be honored if you'd use the name Jensen either as a first or middle name. I find it so wonderful that I introduced you to a name that you fell in love with :) (Incase you are wondering ever where I got it - years ago when I was a teenager I loved the soap opera Another World. An actress on the shows real name was Jensen. A name I've always loved) Let me know what you decide to name her ;)

I've been playing piano for 6 years, and I think the best thing for you to do for him is put him in a piano lesson class. Then he can understand how to read music and it will be easier for him to play more songs. Reading music isn't that hard learning easy stuff, including songs in the key of C where their are not sharps or flats unless put in purposly in the song.
Ol' To Joy is a great song without sharps or flats that is easy to learn on piano.

I think he's a little young to start having 'lessons' per say .. but there's no harm in holding him and playing yourself or getting him used to the sound and feel of the keys. My nephew started his piano lessons aged 3 and this worked out pretty well for him. Earlier than that and he wouldn't have had much of a communicative link between himself and his 'teacher'.

Here are some websites for free beginner sheet music.

I would encourage your son to start reading sheet music as soon as he can. As long as he is at least 4, he will pick it up quickly. Good luck.

Exactly how is the music to be described for the kid to tap away if he doesn't read music? A F G D?
What age is the kid? Look for music by age grouping - 3-6

How old is your son? If he just started playing, reading music is next on the agenda. Also, let him simply "play". Play is work for the child. Have fun!

Sorry but I highly doubt he's going to be able to do anything considering he can't read music.

Easy does it - let him have a few more lessons first. You don't want to put him off by pushing him too much.
