You know I am relaxing my Waldorfian death-grip on the no-computer-games-for-kids rule when I salivate when reading about Groovy, the new music composition software by the makers of Sibelius, considered one of the gold-standards in music composition software for adults.
Lest
you think this is complicated stuff, we're assured that a kindergartner
can compose a song, although it's designed for kids ages 5-11. The
software teaches "the basics of instruments, music theory, notation and
composition, and
then lets them create their own songs by dragging and dropping
musically infused shapes, instruments, characters or animations." So
you can easily encourage your budding musical prodigy.
Mabe I'll buy it just for me. The kids can play Legos or something.
