Just as you can enjoy the harmony when listening to music, you can also enjoy the harmony with your eyes. Let's create a "harmony of lines, shapes, and colors" by coloring shapes made by layering various lines. On the day, you can experience harmony by listening to the sounds of the mini keyboard. Feel the variety of harmonies and move your heart.
