Dear Astals,

thanks for your reply. To make it less technical:
I suppose that you have a section in your code where you define the 
frequency of the sounds produced (or do you use wave files???). To me, 
those sounds sound somewhat arbitrary. I'd rather try to support the 
education of kid's musicality by having a authentic tuning. If you 
don't like to cope with that math terms, this table might be of better 
help:

 Namings/Functions - Equal / well tempered freq.
Do  Tonic            C    264   261.63  (1) 
Re  Supertonic       D    297   293.66  (3) 
Mi  Mediant          E    330   329.63  (5) 
Fa  Subdominant      F    352   349.23  (6) 
So  Dominant         G    396   392.00  (8) 
La  Submediant       A    440   440    (10) 
Ti  Subtonic         B    495   493.88 (12) 

cf. http://www.quadibloc.com/other/musint.htm

Out from those you could use Do, Mi, So, La.

Kind regards
Ralf
