What they'll learn: Kids greatly benefit from early exposure--the earlier, the better! Since musical instruments like piano require patience and practice, children develop a good work ethic and dedication which are both great life skills. Once the piano becomes easier and their hard work pays off, they will gain confidence and appreciate the value of their work.
Ages: 5+
Time Commitment: 1-2 hours per week for lessons + additional time for practice
Cost: $15+ per lesson
Some children might be ready for their first piano lesson earlier, but 5 years is the recommended age for the memorization skills and dexterity. Practice is a very important part in success with piano, so at least an extra hour per week if not more should be dedicated to practicing.
