Standalone Mode
In
Standalone Mode
, the
Gini Learning Keyboard™
includes a variety of
different features that allow children to explore musical concepts and
learn to play the piano.
Modes of playing
In
Free Play
, there are a variety of instrument sounds and rhythms children
can use to create their own music. There's also a record feature that
allows children to make a short recording of a song they've composed.
Additional recording space is found in
TV Mode
.
In
Listen
, children can hear each of the 20 bundled songs in order to
learn the melody and get a sense for how each song should be played.
The avatars or letters can light up in this mode in order to show children
which keys are being played throughout a song.
In
Practice
, an innovative LED light system shows children what keys to
press to play the song. To improve the ability to learn, these LED lights do
not just light up at the moment they should be played, but rather travel
down the appropriate key to indicate that key is coming, allowing children
to anticipate notes and get their hands ready to play in plenty of time.
Parent Tip #2
Set aside a specific amount of time each week for practice. Children need the
repetition to learn musical concepts, but they also need repetition to gain the finger
strength and dexterity necessary to perform.
