Anybody Can Play PIANOONLINE VIDEO PIANO LESSONS FOR CHILDREN FROM 3 TO 103!TOPICSGENERAL INFOEQUIPMENT NEEDED USING THE VIDEOS LEARNING TO PLAY THE PIANO AT HOMEWITH THE ANYBODY CAN PLAY APP and VIDEOSGENERAL INFO:Books have been written about tremendous increases in brain function from learning to play the piano. These brain functions transfer to other subjects as well - especially when the piano lessons are started at a young age. ![]() Teach your young child how to use the anybodycanplayPIANO app, then be sooooo impressed that they are using it by themselves! Let your child explore through the app at will, but ask them to learn the songs from the top down. The top ones are easier! ![]() And remember, this app works with any age. It might be a good idea for you to learn to play these songs as well. It will show your child true interest on your part. MIDDLE SCHOOLERS, TEENS and ADULTS It may seem strange that the first thing on the app is about color coding fingers. I always started the rank beginner adults with colors, but with the option of doing an “adult only” curriculum in a couple weeks if they wished. At the end of a couple weeks, EVERY adult wanted to continue with the colors. REASONS FOR COLORS: Most beginner pianists begin with the right hand only - or with the left hand doing far less than the right hand. Both hands should be equally trained from the start. This is the reason for Level 2 on the app. It is important to be able to play a melody with both hands separately as well as together. ![]() So, do pay attention to those finger colors. And, learn to play the songs so well that you do not need the arrows. Also, be in the habit of reviewing the songs you know at least one time per day. Your finger dexterity and muscle memory will keep improving if you do this. The videos are primarily music theory, so do look at them. Do activities as desired…or help that little brother or sister with an activity or game. YOUNG STUDENTS Young students can use the app independently. However, they may need help learning how to go to their “song” in the beginning. They may also need extra help with finger colors, patterning, etc. ![]() Remember to be excited and impressed about each step learned….just like you were when those first words were spoken. And, with all ages, it is a good idea to have some type of “reward” when certain levels are achieved. EQUIPMENT NEEDED APP AND COMPUTER 1. The AnybodycanplayPIANO app (cost: $1.99 per month).
