    Two years ago, my girl at 5ish was at level 0. After showing her TwoSet's videos this summer, and me constantly playing classical music in the car for this past 6 months, she (7.5yo) is at about level 4ish. Some of her favorite pieces are Mendelssohn's violin concerto in E minor, Wieniawski's Scherzo Tarantelle, and Prokofiev's Violin Concerto No.1 in D Major. My 4y3m old son has skipped level 0 and is at Lv 2. Both kids are obsessed about Brett and Eddy, and they will sing along to Duh Duh Duh Dum.
