Curriculum Survey

Imagine stepping up to a musical instrument you have never played before and being able to make beautiful, rhythmic and melodic music right away, even if you have never played a musical instrument before. Now imagine the wonder of that experience through the eyes (and ears) of a child.

We witness this time and again as children of all ages are drawn, almost magnetically, to the Freenotes instruments.

Freenotes instruments captivate attention and are easy to play. Whether you are two or 82, the experience offers a creative and sensory play experience for all. They are exciting visually and are built to withstand the rigorous play of children and the elements of nature. Above all, the tones are pure, soothing and acoustically perfect, even when multiple instruments are played at once.

Freenotes instruments enable children to discover confident self-expression that is accessible and enriching. Foster their creativity and the positive returns are boundless.

Musical Playgrounds

Great for school playgrounds, parks, forests and community projects, these instruments can be installed in any combination. We guarantee that any grouping of Freenotes instruments delivers quality of sound, right from the start. Several of our instruments are ideal for wheelchair accessible playgrounds. And when we focus on play and playgrounds, we encourage both children and adults to join in!

Consultation is available to help you choose the right ensemble for the setting and your budget. We highly encourage a minimum of three instruments as a core ensemble. Additional instruments can be added at any time.

Early Education

We believe that learning to play musical instruments makes a substantial contribution toward academic learning, self-esteem, socialization and overall well being. As a company and through our instruments, Freenotes aspires to enrich learning and lifelong enjoyment of music. Simplifying music and making it readily available often develops an interest in pursuing music in a more traditional sense.

The Rhyme and the Reason

When children play an instrument or learn a new dance move, they experience a unique integration of body and mind, which is crucial to a child's readiness for subjects such as reading, writing and math. This process of kinesthetic learning has also been proven to work in helping children with special needs such as ADD, ADHD and autism.

Musical play allows children to make choices and to enjoy themselves in a spontaneous, intuitive manner. Coupled with the outdoor environment and all that it encompasses, Freenotes instruments deliver a rare and exciting learning opportunity that is child focused and socially dynamic. For music therapy, Freenotes instruments add the valued element of being outside.
