Sale Price: $5.99 Original Price: $6.99

A 16-page printable PDF of movement games, finger-number activities, and black-key improvisation ideas for young beginner piano students.

Help young beginners explore the piano with activities that get them moving, looking, touching, and listening.

Black Keys & Finger Numbers is a printable collection of piano activities for preschool and early elementary students. Start with big movements—like hopping between taped “black keys” or tossing bean bags onto a giant hand—then move to visual activities and hands-on finger practice.

Inside, you’ll find ideas for introducing groups of two and three black keys, coloring and naming fingers on both hands, using play-doh to strengthen finger awareness, and exploring finger numbers through simple touch-and-find games. The guide also includes a black-key improvisation idea for individual, partner, or group lessons.

Use the activities individually or choose a few to help a young student reset, explore, and build familiarity with the keyboard.

This 16-page PDF includes:

  • Movement and visual activities for learning groups of two and three black keys

  • Right- and left-hand finger-number coloring pages

  • A play-doh finger activity

  • Finger 2 and 3 touch-and-find activities for both hands

  • Keyboard visuals for marking and identifying black-key groups
