The purpose of this booklet is to help promote a spirit of sympathy on the part of parents toward the development of their children in the knowledge and appreciation of music. These miniatures indicate the desirability of an increased sympathy toward the children, their teachers and the general field of music as an art. Certainly a closer bond of understanding might exist between parents, particularly mothers, and music. There are many advantages in beginning in infancy the basis of a child's appreciation Of music. Such pre-school training tends to create a sympathetic bond between the children and their parents. There is much a parent can do to enable the child to hear good music in the home. Encouragement given in the development of his sense of rhythm, his ear for music, and his musical appreciation in general, benefits both the child and the parents. It is quite rea sonable to believe that a child can learn to sing as he learns to talk. The first conscious tone he sounds should be of as much moment as the first spoken word.
It is not the writer's intention to make this booklet technical in the least. The discussion on Elementary Theory and Musical Structure is of necessity inclined to be somewhat technical in appearance, though in reality it is not any more technical than the inside of any good dictionary. It is included because there seems to be a definite need for such information as it offers. There are many perplexing problems that arise in the parent's mind when asked by the child for assistance in the matter Of note values, scale building, the meaning of certain signs and characters found in the music the child has been given by his teacher to study, the meaning and measurement of intervals, the formation of chords, the analysis of a piece of music to determine its form, - all items upon any one of which the young student might nat urally turn to the parent for assistance. With this in mind, the discussion is entered in this booklet in the hope that it may help the parent to supply, even in a small way perhaps, the assistance sought by the child. Technical terms have been avoided whenever possible in order that the reader unfamiliar with 'such terms may better understand the matter under discussion.
