There are four music games on Classics for Kids, and each of them are based on solid musical theory. The Rockin' Rhythm Master encourages children to listen to and repeat drum beat rhythms, while the Note Name game is all about naming notes on a staff. The composer time machine offers musical samples from great musicians, and a simple composer lets students create music as long as they keep four beats to every bar. The games open in a small window, so if you use Firefox, I would recommend the Flash Game Maximizer plugin in order to make them full screen.

Although they are grouped with the art games, Learning Games for Kids definitely has some worthwhile elementary music games. Many link out to other sites, but they are all student friendly and have content that is school appropriate. Music Match 'em, for instance, has students match the sound of an instrument with a picture of what they think made that sound. Boom Thang is a fun and easy to use composer game, while Music Memory is a tone matching game based on the doh ray me scale. All in all, there is a good mix of education and fun, but that is exactly what we have come to expect from LearningGamesforKids.com.
