Summary Discussion Guide to Have Fun with Your Music

by Becky Chaffee

Overview

This Have Fun With Your Music companion provides ideas for parent discussion with young music students. The book requires advanced thought level (not reading level, since many ideas are portrayed in the engaging paintings). The original hardback art book is intended for children to be encouraged to practice their instrument. Parents and teachers can tell them to practice until they are blue, but if a student makes it their own, they are empowered. A non-musical parent may not understand the concepts in this humorous art book. Specifically violin, piano and cello students start working early. The book is applicable to students studying any instrument. It encourages students to make it fun, and use good practice habits. There is no other book that addresses this subject for young students.
