G, So, Sol

You will never guess!!! The girls really like Kinder Eggs so they tend to get them on a regular basis. I have to admit that some of the toys are pretty clever. Nothing compares to the toy Raya got from a Kinder Egg she received at a birthday party... take a look!




It's a music note... and a cute one at that. I found this pic on the web and he is pretty much the same as Raya's except her's has a G on the front. Indeed, Raya found the dominant (assuming we are in the key of C). I am only a tonic and mediant away from a major chord!!! This is very exciting. Raya graciously gave me Mr.G and I keep him in my pencil case. So, after a bit of research, I figured out that there's an entire line of these Kinder toys. The series is called Music City. Take a look at this note....



He is a bad note! HA! I run into a few of them from time to time. He is vicious looking isn't he? Now, I need you guys to do me a favour. If you ever run into any of these kinder toys, let me know! I will offer you money! They are so CUTE! I want the entire major scale. I'm assuming they don't have any raised 7ths so a harmonic minor scale is out of the question! I wonder if the leading tone is wearing a blue shirt?

We now have a large collection of these notes, including the metronome and mini-piano. Want our doubles?
