Great addition to the book - very helpful resource!
These tiles are very useful when working with the Dogs and Birds Series - I would highly recommend them as they can be used in many different games / exercises, as well as alongside the songs in the book. My young piano students love them!

High quality product with many uses
These tiles are very high quality. They work better than slips of paper because they're thick enough not to fall between the keys of the piano. The pictures are teeny tiny but my students love when they can tell me what they can see when I can't :) They are perfectly sized to fit ON a piano key - thus a child can have the animal "play" the note by pressing directly on the tile and onto the key. Though I have not used the tiles with the Dog and Bird program, I've found several other uses for them. The children are remembering the letter names of the piano keys suddenly a lot better because of these animals tiles. The plastic bag that the tiles come in is nice and thick, too. Very sturdy.
