Starvard Treasures

Play with sound, no lessons needed

Music toys anyone can play, no lessons and no wrong notes.

Chrome Music Lab is a set of small music toys that anyone can use in a browser. Draw a picture and hear it played, tap out a rhythm, or build a song on a simple grid.

Each one quietly teaches something about how music works, without a single written note. Young children often figure it out faster than the adults beside them.

Try this first

Open Song Maker first and tap a few squares: you have just written a melody. Then try Kandinsky, which turns drawings into sound, and let the youngest person in the room run the show.

Treasures are wonderful free things made by other people. Starvard gathers them with admiration; the credit is all theirs.
