hi @organic527 The tiny Casio will probably be too small for your hands. For an adult sized keyboard, look for a student keyboard like the Yamaha PSR-E273 61-Key Portable Keyboard that comes with a Power Adapter. It's around $150.00 and a decent keyboard on which to start your piano journey.

Many thanks.....I like your sensible and creative approach to music

Dear Ms. Amber, thank you for your comment. I began my piano journey with John Thompson's method, and although the finger numbers are vital for learning finger independence, there needs to be supplemental music to ensure that the note reading is happening. However, at the age of 6, most early childhood music teachers will recommend "sound before structure." Even with the Bastien series, one needs supplemental "sigh-treading" to fill in the gaps. Every situation is different. If you can afford lessons, I would recommend, talking to the teacher and seeing if supplemental songs could be added, such as a note-alphabet page where the child is finding the alphabet letters on the piano of easy familiar songs. You can find lots of these songs on the internet. Here's an example that is a free download from my teacherpayteacher store: www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Your-First-Piano-Note-Alphabet-Page-8135395 In education today, we do a lot of differentiation so that children learn at their own pace and according to their learning style. It takes years to achieve the skill of note reading. Keep piano fun for your child! Don't get discouraged if you think she is not advancing as fast as you think she should! Taking a break from formal lessons to try the books at home will not hurt your child's journey. If you get to the point, in trying the books out at home, where you reach a road block, you'll know that it will be time to get back into formal classical lessons with a trained pianist. Good luck!
