Learn, Play, Eat, Repeat!

 

It had been a long time coming, and their big day had finally arrived! My grandkids had been packing and repacking their backpacks for weeks, anticipating returning to their friends, classrooms and, of course...recess! With Covid keeping them at home for well over a year, for most, they couldn't wait to get back. With a few new rules and adjustments, they easily adapted and were excited to share their first day back experiences with everyone who would listen...and I'm always up for that! Listening happens to be one of my favorite things to do with my kiddos. It takes little energy, no clean-up and fills me to the brim with happiness!

Happiness and Hugs all around,

Well, I'm sold and have been since learning an instrument myself, as a child. I passed the opportunity on to my children and in turn they're now offering the same to their little ones. My grandchildren are loving the process and I love watching them perform! I get to hear a variety of instruments amid a range of ages. I've got a three and eight year old on piano, a six and nine year old on keyboard, an eleven year old playing percussion, and there's my four year old on guitar. That's a whole lot of sound with an incredible amount of fun mixed right in!
Virtual, musical hugs,
