Reader ReviewsMy kids are very musical and especially enjoy and appreciate classical music. This is a fun and enjoyable way to add culture, history of the arts and the magic of classical music into their world. I homeschool my kids, and we have enjoyed several activities from this book for our music appreciation segment ... I think it is a good buy for your activity library at home.
