You have never played music before or cannot read sheet music, and yet you want to play inspiring hymns, famous religious folk songs, and spirituals? Don’t worry! You will begin to play right away. Many spiritual “sorrow songs” are slow and melancholic and are ideally suitable for kalimba. I made my pictured sheet music as simple as possible. You’ll play by number-coded circles. No musical staff or notes. The easy-to-play songs and melodies were adapted especially for beginners. You will be able to begin to play right away if the keys of your instrument have number notations. Most kalimbas already have them. My sheet music is universal and suitable for 10-17 note kalimbas. Each of the modern kalimbas usually has engraved numbers and letters representing the name of the notes. The low notes are in the center of the kalimba. The notes become higher as you move away from the center. The order of the notes alternates from right to left, going outward as you move up the scale. Taking “C D E F G A B C”, “C” is on the right side, and then you will find “D” on the left. The standard 17-note kalimba contains 3 octaves: a full 2nd small octave, a 3rd small octave, and 3 notes from the 4th small octave. The 2nd small octave goes from C4 to C5 and is depicted in my sheet music as simple numbers. The notes from the 3rd small octave have numbers with one dot above each number. The 3 notes in the 4th minor octave - C6, D6, and E6 - are depicted by numbers with two dots above them. I also put one or two dots above the numbers in the sheet music if they use an octave other than the main kalimba octave. The dots will help you to begin to play immediately. Note: songs have been transposed for a diatonic range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. Updates: I appreciate your feedback, which helped us identify and correct all of the typos.

I have always wanted to create a coloring book for toddlers that doesn’t overwhelm and frustrate children. I tested, observed, and did research. Our main conclusions are below, and the primary result of this research is a series of coloring books that encourage toddlers. According to our research, most modern coloring books do not inspire kids to color. What kind of coloring book might be encouraging and inspiring for small children? It should be a coloring book that: … can easily be completed, having just 10-15 pictures, and a maximum of 20-25 pages. Large “comprehensive” coloring books (100+ pictures and 30+ pages) produce a sense of overload: the first thought of your kid will be: “I will never complete this”. The child hastily doodles on each page in an attempt to complete the massive book. … has images that are understandable and familiar (objects known from movies, books, and everyday life) and has colored pictures or pages (does not look like a black and white textbook or a newspaper for adults). … contains rather big, simple, and less detailed pictures with softer shapes. No sharp angles, no bottlenecks. … has a simple, not distracting, and colored background. Coloring the whole page can be a very complicated task for small hands. Having a limited space for coloring will encourage children and help them focus on the picture. The will inspire them to continue. I have heard the argument that this type of coloring book might teach a child to color in their textbooks. However, I have never seen this problem. Part of growing up is learning to discern where and where they cannot play. In fact, all good preschool learning books have space for coloring. … has clearly defined bold outlines. My children always preferred pictures with very bold outlines (up to 2-3 mm). For kids of such a young age, it is a problem to color within the lines because of still-developing fine motor skills. The bold outlines will help kids stay within the lines, and even if they don’t, it will not be very visible. I understand that kids prefer brush-made outlines, which make the picture more friendly and alive. Each spread of the book has two pictures: A pre-colored image and an outlined image. Each figure is large and welcoming. All details that are necessary for the image, but difficult for toddlers, are pre-colored beforehand (ears, eyes, tails, hoofs, etc.). Each picture has a completed pre-colored example, but it is not necessary for children to copy it. A child can choose their own colors independently.
