ABSTRACT:
An educational game for teaching children how to read music by teaching them the locations of musical notes on a musical staff. The game which may be played by two or more players includes a game mat having a flat playing surface with musical clef and staff indicia depicted thereon, and a means for selecting musical notes such as playing cards or a spinner type indicator having the musical notes printed thereon. The game is played by one player selecting a musical note by choosing a card from the deck of playing cards or spinning the spinner. Once a musical note has been selected, the player selecting the musical note communicates the musical note to the other players who are standing along one side of the game mat. The players standing along side the game mat quickly locate and stand on all of the musical note positions within the lines and spaces of the musical staff depicted on the game mat. The player who correctly locates and stands on the most musical note positions generally wins the game. A time piece indicator may be used to limit the amount of time the players have for locating and standing on all of the musical note positions on the musical staff game mat.
