This is my son. Isn’t he cute? My husband and I are both professional musicians with music degrees so we naturally hoped our kid would be into music and did everything in our means to make music appreciation and learning available to him. We expose him to everything from Mozart to Little Richard to The Killers. He’s got a drum kit, a keyboard and a little guitar (these were all gifts from other people, actually). We let him play our own instruments (violin, mandolin, guitar, etc) with assistance. Thankfully, he LOVES music. Big sigh of relief!!!
His favorite song right now is “Roar” by Katy Perry to which he knows most of the words and he expresses his love for the song by krumping (He doesn’t know that it’s is not stylistically fitting and yes, he has seen part of Rize… no regrets there). If you ask him, he’ll say his favorite instrument is the piano but a few months ago it was the drums, so he’s still deciding.
(This video was taken when he was 1 and drums were still his favorite instrument!)
He’s only 2 but I’ve determined that he’s ready for piano lessons! I’ve been teaching young children music lessons since 2002 so by now, I know the signs.
