Frequently asked questions
Why dembow?
We chose a slow dembow, at about 96 beats per minute, because its pulse is steady and leaves room to say each letter. The voice sits above the drums so every letter is clear.
Does it include Ñ?

What age is it for?
Children aged 3 to 5. It lasts three minutes.
What does the child do in the pause?
Llumi asks which letter the alphabet starts with. There are three seconds of silence to answer out loud: A.
Can I use it in class?
Yes. The whole group can sing it, and it stays the same every time.
