Why play a musical instrument?
Playing a musical instrument is fun and can help develop learning skills. Music tuition can teach your child:
- to read music
- improved motor skills through co-ordination
- improved social skills by being part of a group
- self-confidence, patience, discipline and commitment
Studies have shown that children who learn to play a musical instrument show significant growth and development in other areas of learning.
