Let’s connect their music practice to what they already love.
Sometimes practice can feel like a chore – especially when it’s all scales, warm-ups, and unfamiliar songs. But there’s a simple way to bring back the spark: connect it to music they already enjoy.
Ask Two Simple Questions
“What’s your favorite song to play right now?”
“What’s your favorite song to listen to?”
These questions open the door to creativity, curiosity, and connection. And they remind your child that music isn’t just a subject, it’s something they live.
Personal = Powerful
When kids get to play music they recognize or love, something shifts. Practice becomes a choice, not a task. Confidence grows. Motivation kicks in.
And you don’t have to wait for their teacher to assign it. If they love a particular song (even a pop tune or video game theme) we may be able to help you find a simplified version they can learn.
Try This:
Ask those two questions this week.
Then let us know what they say, we’d love to help you track down the sheet music! This is where music becomes theirs.
Make music theirs.
