Practice sets
Here are some pre-defined option sets to common exercises typically assigned to piano students.
This is just a demo for convenient start, the app can do a lot more.
All of the examples below are just shortcuts to the options, and using these options or URL params you can tailor the app to suit your current needs.
Make sure to check what's under the gear icon.
eg. You can turn on the "display notation" option to see the notes on the staff, or change the key signature.

The Baby Mode
This is the easiest game (even for a 3-4 years old toddlers) to learn the notes on the staff.
In the baby mode, the cat pictures (rewards) are displayed very often, to engage the kid.
Here are some examples on how you can fine tune the app for your kid:
- Baby mode C major - C major scale notes (without accidentals), one by one
- C major random - C major scale notes, draw randomly
- Bass clef - C major scale notes, bass clef
- Treble clef, two hands - C major scale notes, two hands
- C and E notes - Learn just two notes - C and E
- C, E, G notes - Learn just these three notes - C and E, G
- C and E notes - Learn just two notes - C and E (names only, no score)
- C, E, G notes - Learn just these three notes - C and E, G (names only)
The last three examples are using combination of baby mode and specific chords options where you can type in the note names in the order they are meant to be played. This way you can teach the kid how to play simple songs.
Take this further, by changing the options or using the URL params.
Note that you can use H and K shortcuts to display hints and notes on the keyboard.
