Children learn to read and play notes using oversized note heads with letter names, then gradually transition to standard notation for independent playing.
Who Is This Book For?
Ideal for children ages 5–10.
Perfect for absolute beginners and early-elementary recorder students.

What Makes This Book Easy for Kids to Learn?
The book uses oversized note heads with letters inside to give young players a clear visual guide.
