Excerpt from The New First Music Reader: Preparatory to Sight-Singing, Based Largely Upon C. H. Hohmann

Infancy is that period in which the organization of the framework through which the mind acts on the world without is incomplete; childhood commences with the completion of this organization, and continues as long as animal enjoyment is the chief consideration of life the period of youth unfolds itself when the mind begins to feel interest in its own exertion, and to be somewhat self-sustaining in its operation, meeting the educator, as it were, half-way.

If one of these periods be overlooked, or not used in the way that its characteristics demand, elementary education is so far imperfect or vitiated.

The children for whom the New First Music Reader and New First Series of Charts are designed are from five to eight years of age. It will be seen, therefore, that the course of instruction extends somewhat into the second period, during which knowledge of any kind is obtained chiefly through the senses.

The author above quoted classifies the senses into three groups: First, taste and smell.
