[quote=Anonymous]I also have a 7 year old DD who gets easily frustrated if she doesn't do well right away. Music lessons are good for this problem. No matter what a kid's natural level of talent is music lessons are individualized and can go at any pace. So if kids are making progress, they are being challenged. Every week the pieces get harder and she gets frustrated and every week she gets better at them because she practices daily. I'm hoping that over the long term this experience will teach her patience and perseverance. She is also in dance, something she enjoys but it not at all good at naturally. She picks things up more slowly than the other girls, but she enjoys it and sees that if she puts in extra practice she can do well too.[/quote]
