Cai Hong Bi Fen

This songbook, written completely in Mandarin, allows children to explore, sing, and play traditional Chinese children's songs using the colors of the rainbow. Each song is written in standard notation with lyrics and chords and is also presented with colors instead of notes - similar to the colors of Boomwhackers, student handchimes, or rainbow-colored glockenspiels. This departure from Suzuki and Orff pedagogy puts the student at the center of learning and engages them in musical understanding through positivity and play that takes children, whether in a group or individually, on a musical journey through the senses. The teacher's edition includes enough stickers to code 20 instruments.
