Glow Keys: a piano for kids that lights up and waits
Glow Keys is a free online piano for children learning their first songs. Pick
a song and the next key glows on the keyboard. Then the song
waits — it will not move on until your child plays that key. There is
no timer to beat and nothing to fall behind, so a four-year-old can play a real
tune all the way through on their first go.
How it works
Listen — the piano plays the song while the keys light up.
Play Along — the notes arrive in time and your child plays with them.
Practice — the song stops at every note and waits for the
right key, then carries on in tempo. This is the mode most children start in.
Songs included
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Hot Cross Buns, Mary Had a Little Lamb, Ode to Joy,
Row Row Row Your Boat, Frère Jacques, Jingle Bells and Happy Birthday — simple
beginner piano songs, each with a backing track at three speeds.
