[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you child can easily reach a full octave with one hand (thumb on middle C and picking on high C) they are not ready.[/quote] Really? Mozart composed symphonies at age 3! You do not have to reach an octive to start music lessons because initially children should be taught the basics. I had my first music lessons at age 4 with a five note, one-hand song. OP group lessons are useless. However, make sure she understands that she had to practice every day. At her age, I practiced ten minutes twice a day but my mother sat night with me while I practiced. If you can't do this, or have someone who can do so, don't waste your money. [/quote] Group lessons are not useless. But you should look for a studio where the kids each have their own keyboard and headphones. [/quote]
