How to Play Starfish Staff music note theory game

Playing Starfish Staff is easy. Players choose their favorite color starfish and then take turns flipping cards and identifying notes (beginning students only have to identify the note line or space number while more advanced students can identify the note name). Players move forward the number line or space their card indicates (e.g. a pearl on the first space means move forward one; a pearl on the fourth line means move forward four).
