Music education system for young children.
Note Knacks are an interactive, hands-on teaching tool that allows children to create their own compositions as early as preschool. Children draw their music on paper, perform their composition and have a visual, self-created manuscript that they can sing or play as often as they wish. Combine your student's work to create a whole class composition!
