Blockflötenland ist eine phantasievolle, kindgerechte Schule in drei Bänden für Anfänger auf der Blockflöte und in der Musik. Hier eröffnet sich den Kindern eine neue, bunte Welt voll Musik, die sie mit ihrer Blockflöte erforschen. Von einem Zauberer und einer weisen Eule an die Hand genommen, machen sie hier ihre ersten musikalischen Schritte. Auf der Reise lernen sie Schritt für Schritt nicht nur, wie man auf der Blockflöte spielt, sondern auch das Noten lesen und wichtige Musikzeichen. Lustige Musikstücke, Rätsel, Spiele, bekannte Abzählreime und Lieder für einen oder mehrere Spieler sorgen für Spaß und Abwechslung auf dem Weg. Bei jedem neuen Griff oder Zeichen dürfendie kleinen Abenteurer in Band 1 den dazugehörigen Aufkleber aus dem mitgelieferten Sticker-Blatt selbst heraussuchen und einkleben. In Band 2 kündigt ein beiliegendes Plakat den Blockflötenzirkus an: Die Akteure sind natürlich die jungen Schüler, die hier allerlei Tricks und Spielereien auf der Blockflöte lernen. In Band 3 können die Schüler schon schwierigere Stücke und Lieder auf der beiliegenden CD anhören und dann zur separat eingespielten Begleitung selbst ausprobieren. Die CD kann auch gut zum Vorspielen der Lieder verwendet werden. Diese zusätzlichen Elemente machen diese Blockflötenschule zu einer echten Mitmach-Schule, die sowohl im Einzel- als auch Gruppenunterricht eingesetzt werden kann.
