Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to for families to give thanks for all the blessings they have received over the past year. Its also a great time to teach your children to do the same. Children taking piano lessons, because they are supported by so many people, have a wonderful opportunity to learn this tradition. You can help them realize how many people are included in their musical community of support and play an important role in helping them reach their musical goals. For most students these would include: 1. Piano Teachers 2. Their Parents and Family 3. Friends who recognize their need to practice 4. Music teachers at school. 5. Choruses they may also be involved in at school or church. 6. Family members who give them music gifts such as CDs or music books. 7. The Piano Technician who tunes your piano and keeps it good playing condition. 8. Other piano students who share their enthusiasm for music with them. 9. The local music store that provides a great selection of music for teachers to choose for their students. 10. The Piano Sales Gallery that also provides a wonderful piano and Recital Hall where students perform for their family and friends and for auditions. Thats a lot to be thankful for! So take a few minutes to help your child one night at the dinner table this holiday season, or on Thanksgiving Day, give thanks for all their musical blessings. |
