Solfége Volleyball: melodic dictation game with so, mi, and la.

Solfège Volleyball is a melodic dictation game that helps students in grades K–2 practice so, mi, and la. You sing or play a pattern, and students find the matching card and sing or play it back. Correct cards go over the net, and missed cards get a second chance later in the game.
