Each song is pitched in an accessible key for most young voices. The simple melodies and harmonies are easy to learn, even for very young children, but interest is built through key and tempo changes, plus optional easy counterpoint harmonies near the end of most songs. The piano parts are easy to learn, and support the melody for young singers. Lyric sheets and guitar chords are included.
