Teach Your Kids Piano

Do you play the piano? Then you can teach your kids how to play the piano. It's actually pretty simple. The trickiest part about it (and the part that makes the most difference) is getting them to practice every day. If they do that, they will progress.

My oldest child fought and fought me every day about piano. So I finally let him switch to guitar and got him a private teacher. He doesn't fight about practicing the guitar. My other three occasionally complain, but they don't fight me about it. One of them is also taking private guitar and voice lessons, so she practices all three things every day (but she's homeschooled, so she has the time to do so!).

So save your money, or use it elsewhere, because you can teach your kids the piano.

What I use:

Faber Piano Adventures Series - each child has a lesson, technique, performance, and popular book. We also use the scale books and my oldest does the theory book.

Religious Songs - One of the best ways to feel the spirit is through music. And the kids can do so on their own while they're learning a church song on the piano. They'll also be able to perform these songs during home-church or at real-church later on (after quarantine). Our Church Website has hymns, children's songs, simplified songs, and so much more.

Piano Chart - I made this chart and use it weekly during their lessons. Ideally they'd refer to it daily. I write the page number or song name in each box, and any additional instructions they need.
