第一堂鋼琴課對于寶寶來說是個不小的挑戰。面對一架大大的鋼琴和復雜的音符，很多寶寶會感到害怕或者不耐煩。本文引用了一位英國鋼琴老師的“小動物”記音符的方法，非常形象，不妨借鑒一下。

1. Let’s sit in front of the keyboard. Use your right hand to play high notes and left hand to play low notes.

來，坐在鍵盤前面。用你的右手彈高音，左手彈低音。

2. Arch your fingers over the notes, as if you are holding a small ball or apple. Use the tips of your fingers to press on the piano key. Try not to rest other parts of your fingers and palms on the keys.

手指支撐柱，就像握著一個小球或者蘋果一樣。用你的指尖彈琴，別把手指和手掌的其他部位放在琴鍵上。

3. Make sure each note is completely played before you release the piano key and play the next note. Don’t press two or three notes at the same time.

每一個音符要彈實，再把手指抬起來彈下一個音符。別一下彈兩三個音符。

4. Let’s try to balance a coin on the back of your hand and play the piano without it sliding off.

咱們試試在你的手背上放一枚硬幣，看你在彈琴的時候能不能不讓它滑下來。

5. Always make sure to use the right hand for notes / keys higher than middle C and the left hand for notes / keys lower than middle C.

注意右手要一直在中央C的右邊，左手在中央C左邊。

6. Can you find middle “C” by looking at the 2 black keys in the middle? Middle C comes just before / to the left of these 2 black keys. Since its a C, let’s call it Cat. C for Cat!

你能通過琴鍵最中間的兩個黑鍵找到中央C嗎？這兩個黑鍵前面的一個就是它。因為這是C鍵，咱們把它叫做小貓， C是小貓。

7. The next note after C / Cat is D for DOG! It is in between the 2 black notes, which looks like a dog’s ears!

C（Cat）下一個音符是D，我們把它叫做小狗。D在兩個黑鍵之間，看起來像小狗的耳朵。

8. E for ELEPHANT comes next. Try to find all the elephants by hopping up and down the keyboard. Do you notice that E is on the other side of the 2 black keys?

下一個是E大象，試著在鍵盤上找到所有的E， 你注意到他總是在兩個黑鍵的另一端了嗎？

9. The next note is F for FROG! Repeat the hopping game again. Notice that F comes just before the group of 3 black notes.

下一個音符是F青蛙！同樣在鍵盤上跳著找到他們，注意它總是在三個黑鍵的前面。

10. The next note is G for GIRAFFE. Can you find all the Gs along the keyboard?

下一個音符是G長頸鹿。你能在琴鍵上找到所有的G嗎？

11. A for ANTS comes next. You will notice that the full piano keyboard starts and finishes on an A.

下一個是A螞蟻。你會注意到整個琴鍵的兩端都是A。

12. The last one is B for BEAR. Now all the keys have been named. We have reached C again! Good job!

最后一個是B小熊?，F在所有的音符都找到了，因為我們又回到了C！你真棒！
