      This is just superb, I have been researching "music theory for kids" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Foonlant Dumbstruck Formula - (just google it ) ? It is a great exclusive product for discovering how to teach your child to read music notes minus the normal expense. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my colleague got cool results with it.
