synths 4 toddlers

[John Speth]

Here's my 2 cents on the subject.

My 15 month old has this el-cheapo chinese made mini keyboard with loads of
buttons and virtually no instructions.  It's got a simple sequencer, a drum
machine, and a canned song selector.  He's basically got the whole thing
figured out now.  I'm not saying he's any child genius.  I *am* saying that
these little brains have a lot more going on inside than is obvious so my
advice to a designer is: Don't be afraid to challenge their little minds!
