QMG Piano and Keyboard Stickers and Complete Piano Music Lesson and Guide Book; Designed and Printed in USA

My daughter is 6 and she will be starting piano lessons in a few months. We have purchased a digital piano so she can get acquainted with the instrument before the official classes begin. She tinkers on it all the time and picks some familiar tunes, but she cannot read the staff very well. These stickers are awesome and totally serve our purpose. They are well-made, easy to apply and remove, the ink is dark enough to be easily visible. Most of all I love how unobtrusive these are. By positioning them at the back of the key, you still have most of the key blank. I saw the other piano stickers that go on the front part of the key, but they seem more distracting and the player will cover the sticker when striking the key with their finger. These are great for familiarizing my daughter with key names and note positions on the staff. We will likely remove the stickers when she begins her piano lessons, because I'm guessing the teacher will want her to learn the keys on her own, but I bet she'll know them well by then. The little printable piano song book that comes with this purchase deserves a special mention! We love it!!! It arrives as an email attachment before the stickers are even delivered in the mail. It has 19 popular songs ("You Are My Sunshine", "Twinkle, Twinkle", "Happy Birthday", "Amazing Grace", etc.) as well as all major chords and scales with finder notations. Every song is written on the staff, but each note has its letter name too, which is great fro beginning players. My daughter had played all the songs from the book a few times over and is putting it lots of practice each week thanks to this book. There is something about being able to actually play a completed piece to encourage the player, as opposed to practicing endless scales. This is a great product and is absolutely worth the money for beginning pianists. Click Buy without hesitation.

Great product

I recently decided to pursue a life-long dream of playing the piano but knew I might have some challenges now that my brain has decided it’s too old to remember where I left my coffee much less learning keys and musical notes, so I was happy to see someone had invited these. Being that I’m an adult AND that I didn’t want my new beautiful keyboard looking like a hot mess, I chose these because they looked clean and having them mounted on the upper part of the keys made sense because if they were low, your fingers would be covering them. They came with a placement chart and a little wooden stick to hep mount them. They were easy to apply even if one starts a bit crooked you can use the stick to lift it and re-apply. They are well made, and have the letter of the note as well as showing the note placement on the Staff. If I decide to remove them someday it doesn’t appear like they would leave a sticky mess. I highly recommend these for every age. If you want to learn something why not use the tools available to make things easier? Less frustration when learning something new will go a long way to help you feel good about what you are doing.

I purchased these piano stickers to help refresh my knowledge of the keyboard. I played the piano as a child and decided upon retirement to take it up again. These were a big help, and with the wooden stick supplied with the stickers they were easy to apply. Initially taking them out of the package it was a little confusing but once I started with middle C the rest were easy to follow. They were inexpensive and I would recommend them to anyone who needs a little help associating the notes with the keys.

Let me start by saying this booklet was strictly geared towards beginners in need of learning the musical keynotes and letters useful for typical pianos and keyboards. A true beginners guide, it is nicely crafted into individual exercises for each lesson. It describes very easily, note values, rest values, hand coordination and key layout. Great not just for my kids but for adults as well. I honestly wish I had this book first this was so beneficial in just teaching music notes in general which could also be applied similarly to other instruments if an adult or child also plays others'. It has a few song music sheets at the end for practice but you can get those online for free + tons more. The layout of this book is so easily readable. My son 11 can practice most days without my assistance (another book), but with this book I had to check on him a few times because he never came to me for help with this one at all! It came with keynote labels and a stick to properly place them. I did not use them because our keyboards came with stickers but no stick to apply them, so I am glad this one at least has a stick if needed later. Although, when applying the stickers be extra careful when noting the exact placement. For instance, my keyboards are 88, 54 and 56 key keyboards. This particular booklet has a user guide and sticker set specifically for keyboards with 49, 61, 76 and 88, with an additional option of 36 and 44 key keyboards. When counting keys you count the white and black keys in total. The middle C is not located directly in the center but rather closer to the left (CDEFGABCDEFG....etc.). When placing the stickers regardless the size you will always start from the Middle C. Ex. (from left to right): 30-48 key keyboards the Middle C position is the 2nd C/49-78 the middle C is usually placed in the 3rd C position. And, with 88+ being placed in 4th. Also, I am so thankful for amazon fulfillment! OMG! The first one I purchased was allegedly "left in a secure location"! Yeah right I live in a multi-unit dwelling in NYC the only secure location for me and my belongings are within my unit! Must be a new guy lol The process was wickedly fast no speaking no typing no drama pure and simple click click redirect click -> QUICK REDELIVERY!

The book and stickers are a great investment. The stickers were so easy to peel off. The directions for the stickers and the book were so easy to figure out and get started. It’s been fun for me and my child to learn.

The directions were very easy to follow. The stickers were very easy to apply. They provide a short flat wooden stick to help with the application of the stickers. The stick is needed since you want to apply the stickers high up on the keys (so you don't continuously hit them with your fingers as you play the piano). If you only used your fingers (without the stick) the stickers would be hard to apply since your fingers would have a hard time getting in between the black keys. The directions recommend cleaning the keys first; which is a good idea, so you are not applying the stickers on top of dust. On my first several stickers to apply, I had to pull them up to readjust the placement on the key; they came up just fine. I don't know how easily they will come up after a LONG time, but they did not leave any residue on the key when I took them off to re-apply. Once I applied 5 or 6 stickers I got the hang of it, and was apply to put them on quickly. I liked these particular stickers since they included the "sharp" and "flat" indicators on the same sticker that you apply to the "white" keys. I have seen some stickers where you put the "sharp" and "flat" stickers on the black keys, but this is unnecessary and causes you to apply a LOT more stickers. The sticker also shows where the note is on the scale. I would definitely recommend and purchase these again.

These stickers are good quality and I didn’t have much trouble attaching them to the keys (though it was a bit confusing at first how to arrange them - read the instructions carefully - twice!). But they may not be the best idea for learners since they encourage you to look at the keys all the time. If you do that too much it actually will slow down your ability to learn to sight read. So either don’t use them, or remove them as soon as possible when you get beyond a very basic beginner skill level.
