Free Prodigies Music Starter Program — Your Child's First Week of Music Lessons

Designed for families and teachers of young children, the Starter Program walks you through Prodigies' color-coded, solfège-based method one easy step at a time. You don't need to read music or play an instrument — just press play, follow along, and sing, sign, and play with Mr. Rob.

What's inside Week 1

• Activator — “Beet & Cherry”: a fun call-and-response video that gets kids singing and tapping a steady beat with body percussion.
• Core Lesson 1 — “Campfire Song”: introduce the first three notes (Do, Re, Mi) with singing and hand-signs.
• Core Lesson 2 — “Merrily We Roll Along”: play a real melody on color-coded C, D, and E bells.
• Extension — “Pipes in C Major”: meet all the notes of the C major scale by name, color, number, and solfège.
• Printable sheet music and creation activities, including cut-and-play rhythm cards and a “Hello Bells” tracing worksheet.

Who it's for

The Starter Program is built for preschool and early-elementary kids (ages 3+) at home or in the classroom. It includes guidance for both parents and teachers, with tips for pacing whether you teach one lesson a week or several.

How to use it

Start by watching each video once or twice, then use the sheet music to play slowly without the video. Add the pencil-and-paper activities, keep your color-coded bells nearby, and repeat until your child is singing and playing with confidence. With young kids, repetition and ending on a positive note are the keys to lasting musical memories.
