We present a novel interface of a digital music authoring tool that is designed for children. Our system consists of a unique multimodal input device and corresponding platform to support children's music authoring. By departing from the conventional design approaches of existing tools, our system provides a simple and intuitive environment for young children to use. The proposed interface is tested with children in a focus group study, and the results of the study are encouraging in that the children were able to perform some of complicated multitrack recording tasks within a single session that lasted for 15 to 20 minutes.
