What's It About?

ITOOCH MUSIC is a quiz and reference app that explores the world of playing and studying music. Kids can explore detailed lessons about music basics, theory, cultures, styles, and history, and they can take quizzes that test their knowledge. There are listening exercises, fill-in-the-blank questions, and lots of multiple-choice questions that feature text, audio clips, and images. Users level up to increasingly more colorful martial-arts-style belts as they complete quizzes and earn points. Each unit ends with a longer review quiz to test kids' knowledge and reinforce what they've learned.

From in-depth lessons about world music and music history to detailed explorations of music theory, there's a ton of great information here. This app could be a great introduction to music history for a middle school student or a good way to reinforce basic music theory topics for a younger student beginning music study. Although the visual style is cute, and the animated character is charming, there's real depth and serious content here, making this a great tool for kids of many ages and ability levels.

Talk to Your Kids About ...

  • Families can talk about music. Play some of your favorite songs for your kids, and they can do the same for you. Then talk about what you like and don't like about certain music.

  • How does music from different cultures around the world sound different? What kinds of instruments do people use in different musical traditions?

  • Talk about how musical styles change over time. For example, how is music in the baroque period and the romantic period the same or different? What other musical styles or time periods sound the same or different?

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by
