This bundle contains 2 pieces from the growing set of beautiful pieces about mythical creatures. Both pieces come with their beautiful covers, lyrics, and bonus coloring sheet. Each piece is carefully edited and fingered to help young and elementary students master the pieces with ease.
Piece Levels:
Mermaid Wishes
Mermaid Wishes is elementary level with the smallest note value as the quarter note. The piece is mostly steps, skips and repeated notes with a few fourths. Hand crossings are easy as the left hand always plays a C#. The damper pedal is used for the entire piece, but never has to be lifted. There are F and C sharps in the piece, but these are indicated next to each note and not as a key signature.
Unicorn Gliding
Unicorn Gliding is early elementary with the smallest note value as the quarter note. The piece consists mostly of steps, skips and repeats. The left hand crosses the right hand and always plays the same notes. The damper pedal is held down, but never lifted.
Bonuses included:
This bundle contains the following bonuses:
- Coloring sheets – There is a bonus color page in each file.
- Recordings – There is an mp3 recording of the performance of each piece.
What is a studio license?
This bundle is a studio-licensed bundle which permits the purchasing teacher to make as many prints as they ever need for piano students they directly teach. This is not a multi-teacher license, so it can only be used by one teacher. However, the music and bonus can be used by as many students as the purchasing teacher directly instructs on a regular basis.

I had 3 girls in a class learn these songs. They loved both of them and told me they were calming, easy, and sounded magical. The unicorn song sounded like it was really gliding. They also liked the way the mermaid song moved over the piano. As a teacher, I found them easy to teach as they sounded more difficult than they actually were. Girls especially like unicorns and mermaids so they were thrilled to learn these songs.

My little girls all loved Unicorn Gliding. One of them even included it in her Guild Program. And they are all looking forward to leanring the Mermaid Song soon.

I have two students who are sisters. One is working on Mermaid Wishes and the other Unicorn Gliding. They love them! I’m teaching via FaceTime and it’s a little different (and sometimes difficult!) teaching virtually so I videoed myself playing the second page of Mermaid Wishes so my student could actually see how the notes moved upwards.Thank you for such lovely pieces that appeal to my elementary age girls!

Perfect for my beginning students. Bonus is the cool coloring page included!

I teach twin sisters who are both very capable and work very hard, but one sister is advancing quicker than the other. This has been on my mind; I don’t want the ‘other’ sister to be discouraged.
Last week she asked me for some new music, and I gave her both Unicorn Gliding and Mermaid Wishes. She played them BEAUTIFULLY today! She was so pleased because both pieces sound so sophisticated, and are at an easier level. It was a huge confidence booster for her.
Thank you for creating beautiful music that my students love!

I really appreciate your music. It’s much more fun than the typical same kind of music I’ve seen the many years I’ve been teaching. My beginning students feel so grand when they are able to play such exciting, engaging pieces right away. And the artwork is just beautiful.
Thanks for making my life easier and more enjoyable too. When my students are happy, I’m happy!

If you’re looking for a piece of music that is accessible, flexible and beautiful, you’ve found it! Unicorn Gliding is absolutely beautiful, and it gives the perfect opportunity to learn more about concepts such as transposing, 7th chords, and chord analysis. This piece is especially loved by the junior high girls I teach. It’s a wonderful introduction to the movement in “Cascading”. Thank you, Wendy, for creating such wonderful music that our students not only love, but also learn so much from!
