These are practical tips that we have discovered from years of teaching and our experiences with teaching hundreds of students each year. 1. HOW YOUNG IS TOO YOUNG - STARTING AT THE RIGHT AGE Adults can start any instrument at any time. Their success is based on how willing an adult is to commit to practicing. We teach many beginner students in their 60’s and 70’s. For children, starting at the right age is a key element to the success of their lessons. Some people will tell you “the sooner the better” but this attitude can actually backfire and be a negative. If a child is put into lessons too soon they may feel overwhelmed and frustrated and want to stop lessons. The last thing you want to do is turn a child off music just because they had one unpleasant experience which could have been prevented. Sometimes if the child waits a year to start lessons their progress can be much faster. Children who are older than the suggested earliest starting age usually do very well. The following are guidelines we have found to be successful in determining how young a child can start taking music lessons.

At this age, private lessons generally do not work as the child has not yet experienced the formal learning enviroment of kindergarten or school and learns more effectively through the game oriented preschool enviroment.

Music is a language, and kids can begin to read and understand it around the same time they begin reading. Piano is one of Violin is another great first instrument and excellent for ear training, says Vermeersch, because finding the right pitch means figuring out where to press the string, which is more challenging than finding a note on a piano. And unlike most wind and brass instruments, they come in student sizes to accommodate little hands.

20. Preschoolers Today: Raising Creative Kids: Part Three: The Art Of Music with children s orchestras and choirs are often home to organized preschool music programs such as Cook s 3year-old has already asked to take music lessons. http://preschoolerstoday.com/resources/articles/creativekidspt3.htm

Search the Site: news community diaries shop Raising Creative Kids Part Three The Art of Music By Shel Franco Six bare-foot preschoolers fidget on the checkered rug. A soft-spoken blonde sits cross-legged at the front of the room. She smiles at the children and begins to sing. All at once, the room is alive. Eyes are twinkling. Hands are clapping. And before the song is over, six bare-foot preschoolers are singing, too. So went my son's very first preschool music class. For a music lover like me, the experience warmed my heart and touched my senses. It was hard not to enjoy the music mixed with laughter. But I learned something else, something that could only be taught by my curious 3-year-old son and an excited preschool music class: music plays an important, if not critical, role in a preschooler's life. The Importance of Music Why is it so important to expose a child to music? For one thing, the exposure might be intellectually stimulating. "Beginning in the mid-90s the country was a-buzz with the research that there is a certain window of opportunity for the musical neurons to be connected," says Rachel Kramer, assistant executive director for Programs and Convention for Music Teachers National Association, in Cincinnati, Ohio. "Introducing music to children before the age of 3 would solidify this connection, and that connecting these neurons would in fact, increase the spatial reasoning capabilities of a child." The importance of music in a child's life can be much less dramatic than increasing intelligence, but even more meaningful. Kramer, who is also the owner of the Baldwin Music Education Center, a 36-year-old preschool music program, says that exposure to music and participation in preschool music classes help a child to develop self-expression and social skills, not to mention the foundations for later musical instruction: keeping a steady beat and matching pitch.
