How To Prepare Your Child For Piano Classes

by Weinber John Music School in Australia

It's a wonderful thing when kids show an interest in playing an instrument right from an early age. If you have decided to send your little one for Piano Lessons Meadow Heights, here are some tips that will help prepare both you and your little one. These little tips will not only help your child pick up playing the piano faster, but also let him enjoy his classes and look forward to them!

1. Get A Piano At Home

Buying a piano may seem to be like a huge step, especially if your little one is just starting off with Piano Lessons Meadow Heights, but but it will be well worth it in the long run. There are many pros and cons of owning an acoustic piano or a digital one, but nevertheless, whatever type you decide on, do make the purchase. An acoustic piano will help your child develop a better touch of the instrument, whereas a digital piano will be more suited for you if you happen to live in an apartment or a small house.

2. Set A Clear Practice Zone

Where you place the piano will play a major role in how often – and how well – your child learns to play. Whether you are planning to get a piano teacher to come home and teach your kid, or planning to enrol him in Piano Lessons Meadow Heights outside the home, the location of the piano will affect your child's learning of the instrument. Place the piano in an area of the house that is free from distractions and also not too stuffy or concealed or this will give the signal that playing the piano needs to take some special effort. If you place the piano in an open room that doesn't have the television or any other disturbances, it will be in plain view to your little one and he will be more encouraged to practice whenever he sees it.

3. Buy A Piano Bench Or Stool That Is Suited For Your Child

It can be tempting to buy a 'grown-up' piano bench when your child starts his Piano Lessons Meadow Heights, but resist the urge to do so. Instead, invest in a height adjustable piano stool or bench that can seat all members of the family, and can be adjusted according to your little one's increasing height. Sitting in the right position and at the right height is a very important part of learning to play the piano well, and makeshift props - such as arranging cushions – will not help in the long run. Make sure that your child is comfortable while sitting at the piano.

Summary

Learning to play the piano can be very exciting for your child. Keeping a piano at home, designating a clear practice space, and investing in the right piano bench for your child will ensure that he successfully learns the instrument and enjoys attending Piano Lessons Meadow Heights!
