Features: This early childhood piano teaching material is entirely developed based on the unique physiological characteristics and learning psychology of young children. In addition to carefully selected commonly used pieces suitable for young children, such as Bach's exercises, Hanon finger exercises, famous children's compositions from China and abroad, major and minor scales, arpeggios, and chords, it also addresses the phenomenon where young children can play without reading music or have weak music-reading skills. The material is structured in a course-based format, making it rich, engaging, and not dull. It includes practice or performance tips, basic knowledge of the staff notation, and exercises, striving to combine performance techniques with music theory knowledge. To make this teaching material more relatable to young children and to ensure that both early childhood piano teachers and children genuinely enjoy it, the author has specially composed over seventy piano pieces on themes related to kindergarten life and learning. Through practicing and performing these pieces, young children not only learn and master performance techniques but also acquire music theory knowledge. To facilitate teaching, especially to benefit young children's learning, this teaching material also has the following features:
1. This teaching material is divided into three volumes, each accompanied by a demonstration performance CD, which can be both enjoyed and learned from by young children.
2. To protect young children's eyesight, the text in this book uses large fonts, and the musical scores use large note sizes.
3. To make this teaching material more vivid and lively, thereby attracting children's interest in learning, illustrations corresponding to the content of each lesson have been specially created by Mr. Zhang Xinggen.
