Improve your beginner pianists’ note recognition skills with this game of musical snap. It includes treble clef notes C4 to G4 (middle C position).

Ways to play: Bass clef only Treble clef only Both clefs together (both middle Cs count as a match) Musical Notes Snap can be played as a quick 5 or 10-minute game during lessons or your pupils can spend longer playing it at home as part of their practice time.

The pack includes two versions. Version one has a patterned back. Fold over each card and laminate it for a hard-wearing copy that can be used in every lesson.
