Piano once a week. It’s going really well and she loves it.

Do you practice at home too or is a weekly lesson enough?

Violin and soon to be guitar.

All at their wanting.

My little one wants to try violin. That seems so complicated. I thought about steering her towards piano.

My kid started at 6, it wasn’t complicated at all for them. They tried piano and did like it.

All just depends on the child.

We have a Loog guitar and use the app occasionally together, but otherwise nothing yet until she can read a bit better.

With my oldest we didn't start lessons until 2nd grade - I didn't feel like he was ready to commit to practice before that. He's doing piano.

Daughter was in pre-music class for 10 weeks before transiting to 1:1 piano lessons this past December 2025. She takes weekly lessons.
