thanks , the first time i heard about Kodaly was actually from tamsym . what i liked in this book is that it turns a simple nursery rhyme to a music lesson , tapping , rhythm ,…movement . i thought it can be fun with young kids . but before i go ahead and buy i hoped other have used it and could review it . or maybe H from softmozart could give her opinion about such tool .

Excellent explanation from Tamsyn! I am looking into incorporating some of Kodaly principals into our music education. We have not done it yet, not much at least, so I am curious to hear from those who did as well!
