This book includes complete melodies as well as substantial segments of uncomplicated, famous traditional folk songs from 30 different countries. Their goal was to assist you in acquainting your students with the musical traditions of diverse nations and cultures.I use numbers above the classic notes because most modern tongue drums have numbers engraved or painted on their keys. This is great for the absolute beginner who cannot read sheet music.Because most tongue drums include and are tuned to involve the notes of the main octave, all songs from this book are possible to play in one octave.The songs which have been collected in this book can be played on most drum models. Attention: Songs have been transposed for a DIATONIC range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. If you have flat keys on your instrument, I recommended you to use the classic sheet music for piano.ContentsIntroductionA Ram Sam Sam - Moroccan Folk SongAhrirang - Korean SongAnile, Anile - Indian Tamil SongAu Clair de la Lune - French Folk SongBound for South Australia - Australian Folk SongBim Bum Biddy - American SongChe Che Koolay - Ghanian Folk SonCumpleaños Feliz! - Colombian Song¿Dónde Están las Llaves? - Spanish Folk SongDebka Hora - Hebrew SongEpo I Tai Tai e - New Zealand Maori SongFrère Jacques - French SongGiro Giro Tondo - Italian Folk SongGretel, Pastetel - German SongHotaru Koi - Japanese Folk SongKalinka - Russian Folk SongKanzenzenze - Congolese Folk SongKum Ba Yah -African American SpiritualKum Bachur - Atzel Jewish SongLa Cucaracha - Mexican SongLost My Gold Ring - Jamaican Folk SongMein Hut - German SongPounto to Dakhtilidy - Greek Folk SongSingapura, Oh Singapura - Singaporean SongThe Grand Old Duke of York - English Folk SongTongo - Song from Samoa (Polynesia)Un Petit Cochon - French SongVous Diraije Maman - French SongZhao Peng You (Looking looking for my friend) - Chinese SongZimbole - African Song

I call this series "Read by Picture" since I am targeting little readers. I offer the easiest way to make reading books with children a pleasure, even for those children who listen to reading reluctantly. With the usual type of reading, a child is a passive listener, while with "reading by picture", he or she becomes an active participant.Although children may have developed reading skills, they still find joy in reading passages where certain words are substituted with images, viewing it as an additional reward or a special treat. It is more important to receive such bonuses for children who are just starting to read, or for whom reading still requires effort.A small child can only voice words represented by pictures. This "reading" not only makes kids a full participant in the process but also teaches them to reconcile the words of the picture with other words in the sentence.Older children may try to read words from a vocabulary list that appears before the text. A child who has begun to read will be able to enjoy reading the entire text.If you are reading to your little one, please read slowly. Let your child think about the sentence, find the right word, and enjoy the reading process.Some words in this book are changed to pictures. Each story has a pictured vocabulary list at the beginning. The book includes 3 famous fairy tales: The Wolf and Three Little Pigs, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and the Gingerbread Man.Great book for non-English speaking children to learn and remember new words in a fun game-based reading activity.

This book was created with the intention of assisting absolute beginners, regardless of whether they are children or adults, in learning to play in a straightforward and uncomplicated manner, without requiring any knowledge of reading sheet music. For beginners, playing by following musical notes can be challenging, while it is comparatively easier to follow number-coded circles with corresponding note numbers.The primary purpose of this book is not mere reproduction, but to actively engage everyone, as music, by its very definition, involves the expression of emotional states through the use of sounds with specific frequencies and rhythms.While an indication of a song's country of origin is provided, it should be understood that many traditional cultures transcend current national borders. The language in which a song is sung holds more significance and can be utilized in multiple countries. Most songs included in this book have been simplified to accommodate beginners.Since African music often involves improvisation and variation, it is recommended to utilize this sheet music as a guide rather than a rigid framework. The most crucial aspect is to actively listen to and replicate the recordings accessible through the provided QR code.ContentsObwisanaDo Do Ki DoPlouf Tizen TizenSansa KromaA Ram Sam SamSélingueniaShosholozaKanzenzenzeZimboleBanuwaBebe MokeKumbaya, My LordSiyahambaBambaliBele MamaStick Passing SongChe Che KoolaySiyanibingelelaAtadweFunga Alafia

The steel tongue drum and the handpan are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations, and body. No previous training or skills are necessary to enjoy these fascinating instruments. Playing drums can relieve stress and disappointment.Because most tongue drums include and are tuned to involve the notes of the main octave, all songs from this book are possible to play in one octave. If you have less than one octave of keys on your drum, you may need to skip some songs.If you have more than 8 keys, for example, an 11- or 15-note handpan this book would be a great start to your drum experience. Yet, each tongue drum is very different, and it is impossible to accommodate songs for all kinds of tongue drums in one music book.This songbook was written to help the absolute beginner, whether child or adult learn to play in a simple and easy way that requires no knowledge of reading music.

This book is for kids or adults who are absolute beginners in music. I tried to write it as simply as possible. I use an "easy-to-play" visual aid so any beginner can play music quickly. Neither kids nor their parents have to read sheet music or have a musical background. No previous knowledge is necessary.Every song has a large and simple, letter-coded visual, along with traditional sheet music. There is a total of 22 songs and 2 options to help children to begin to play right away.PLAYING BY LETTER CIRCLEPLAY WITH THE MUSICAL STAFFThe player can first follow the circles and then repeat with the classic note symbols and staff. The helpful letters are always above the notes.There are 3 parts in this book. They are equal to 3 levels.Level 1Songs that are played in one octave. All songs here appear twice: once written with circles and the next time with classic music notes. Level 2In this part, you will find one version with both circles and notes and a more advanced version of the song with notes and musical notation.Level 3Here, the first two songs are versions of the same melody (different combinations of notes) written with circles and notes. This is important so that the beginner can see how the same melody can be played in different keys.Additionally, you find funny riddles with engaging activities to teach musical notes and symbols.Table of contentsLevel 1Mary Had a Little LambOde to JoyThe Whills on the BusJolly Old Saint NicholasTen Little FingersLondon BridgeDo You Know the Muffin Man?we Wish You a Merry ChristmasThe First NoelBrahms LullabyRow Row Your BoatItsy Bitsy SpiderSilent NightOh SusannahLevel 2Hot Cross BunsAre You Sleeping?Old McDonaldLevel 3Jingle BellsLa CucarachaYankee DoodleHappy BirthdayAmazing GraceMusic Note ValuesMusical Puzzles

You have never played music before or you cannot read sheet music, but you want to play famous and inspiring hymns and spirituals. Don't worry! You will begin to play right away. I made my pictured sheet music as simple as possible. You'll play by number-coded circles. No musical staff or notes. The easy-to-play songs and melodies were adapted especially for beginners.The melodies have been transposed to one octave and simplified. Also, the number-coded notations have been added and complex notes and symbols have been reduced.

All songs in this book have been written with numbers because most modern tongue drums have numbers engraved or painted on their keys.There are the following hymns and spirituals in this book:Amazing GraceBabylon's FallingBe Still My SoulChrist Was Born on Christmas DayDeck the Halls with Boughs of HollyElijah RockEvery Time I Feel the SpiritGod Is So GoodGreat Big StarsGreat DayHe's Got the Whole World in His HandsHoly, Holy, HolyI've Got Peace Like a RiverJesus Loves MeJingle BellsJolly Old Saint NicholasJoy to the World!

I call this series "Read by Picture" since I are targeting little readers. I offer the easiest way to make reading books with children a pleasure, even for those children who listen to reading reluctantly. With the usual type of reading, a child is a passive listener, while with "reading by picture", he or she becomes an active participant.Even if children can already read, they are happy to read texts where some of the words are replaced by pictures and perceive it as a bonus or a prize. It is more important to receive such bonuses for children who are just starting to read, or for whom reading still requires effort.A small child can only voice words represented by pictures. This "reading" not only makes kids a full participant in the process but also teaches them to reconcile the words of the picture with other words in the sentence.Older children may try to read words from a vocabulary list that appears before the text. A child who has begun to read will be able to enjoy reading the entire text.If you are reading to your little one, please read slowly. Let your child think about the sentence, find the right word, and enjoy the reading process.Some words in this book are changed to pictures. Each story has a pictured vocabulary list at the beginning. Includes 7 simple stories understandable and relatable for kids.Great book for non-English speaking children to learn and remember new words in a fun game-based reading activity.

Playing traditional music notes is difficult for people who have no musical knowledge. You need to know the rhythmic value of each note, its place on the staff, note duration, and combination with other notes. To be aware of all this simultaneously demands music experience and advanced skills. Nevertheless, even if you have never studied music, you can begin to play complicated melodies, and also experiment with your tongue drum in a meditative way.The steel tongue drum (aka tong drum, tank drum, gluck-o-phone, hapi drum, mandala or lotus drum) and the handpan (aka hank drum, UFO drum, zen drum) are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations and body. You don't need classical music training or knowledge of music theory to play them.I collect very simple and well-known songs and melodies with easy rhythms. You can begin to play in just two steps. First, you will play using circles that contain either a number, without having to consider note duration, key, or time signatures. These numbers correspond to those on the keys of your tongue drum. So you just need to follow the numbers.You can get an idea of how the song might be played by listening to the YouTube clip of the same song, which you can access with the QR code below each song. Then, if you find that you can play the song with more confidence, you can try using the second page of the same song, with the actual notes. There, the same melody is written in a traditional manner with all the necessary musical symbols. However, I simplified the melodies in this step as well, transposing the most songs for one octave, leaving the numbers under the notes. I hope that playing these simple melodies will bring you a new relaxation and meditation experience filled with a lot of joy.ContentsAlphabet SongBobby ShaftoCobbler, Mend My ShoeChumbaraDing Dong DiggiDiggiDongFive Little MonkeysHumpty DumptyI Love Little KittyJack and JillMy HatOld Mother Hub
