For children, starting at the right age is a key element to the success of their studying a musical instrument. Some people believe that “the sooner the better”. This attitude can actually backfire and can result in a negative experience for the child. If a child is put into lessons too soon they may feel overwhelmed and frustrated and may want to stop taking lessons. The last thing you want to do is turn a child off music just because they had one unpleasant experience that could have been prevented.
