In this paper, we present preliminary insights about the classification of children's gestural input elicited from a hand movement tracking prototype for musicmaking, namely Co-Rhythm. The analysis builds on the existing gesture taxonomy in human-computer interaction, and provide insights into children's performative gestures when controlling a musical instrument sound for analysing gestural input. Based on our study with four children (aged between 8-11) and four young adults, we report the qualitative results for describing the gestural categories for analysis and informal observational notes on how children's gestural interaction with the prototype differed from young adults. This study is an initial step towards capturing the complexity of performative gestures in relation to guided vs. free version of visual cues. This study shed a light on children's gestures as an input for embodied interaction in performative tasks (e.g., music composition) as well as providing some design recommendations derived from experts from a design workshop on how to further develop cues for guiding children's performative gestures in music making.
