I'm so excited about creating a full-blown music theory curriculum for my kids using the free Basic Music Theory book I posted about earlier. One of the things I'm going to be doing when I set up my lesson plans is to utilize online theory drills to reinforce the concepts that are taught, so I did some research today and found these three great sites:
Each of the sites offers a little something different, so I compiled a list of the various drills they have available. Hopefully this list can be useful to you if your kids are taking music lessons or if you're trying to teach them music theory at home.
