Keys for Kids Levels
Students can begin at any age from 4 to 11 and follow a sequence of courses
appropriate to their age and abilities (see diagram below). While the piano (or
electronic keyboard) is the instrument used for instruction, children develop a
wide range of musical skills and knowledge that will be useful for any other
instrument they may later choose.For fees and schedules visit our
Fees and Schedules page.
Mini Keys© I, II,
III
(4 to 5 year-old beginners)
A dynamic first music experience with age-appropriate introduction to ear
training, rhythm training, movement, solfege singing, keyboard playing, and note
reading. Enjoyment and encouragement are emphasized as children develop a firm
musical foundation. Workbooks offer weekly exercises for home and class.

A comprehensive beginner's course incorporating all of the Mini Keys
activities (modified for the more advanced abilities of this age
group), plus age-appropriate creative and ensemble activities. A
wide variety of games and exercises inspire enthusiasm and
confidence, and reinforce musical concepts. Child and parent work as
a music team in class and at home. Workbooks offer weekly exercises
for home and class.
Super Keys© I, II, III, IV
(7 to 10 year old beginners)
A fast-paced, comprehensive beginners course incorporating all of
the Kinder Keys¨ activities (modified for the more advanced

exercises that take advantage of this group's greater ability to
analyze patterns (melodies, harmonies, rhythm, etc.) and memorize.
New musical elements are reinforced through a variety of individual
and ensemble keyboard activities. Students transpose, compose,
perform solos, and develop ensemble technique by being part of a
keyboard orchestra. Parent participation is strongly encouraged.
