Does Music From Different Cultures Help Your Kids Learn?
So, If remembering words over a long period of time could be considered education, then I guess music is an amazing tool. What about music from other cultures and different languages. Why not give a listed to a little greek radio ( ελληνικό ραδιόφωνο ) and find out for yourself. I suspect it will work pretty well, and you may even educate your self in some Greek language speaking skills. I know I learned a few french words from a certain disco song that Patti Labelle made famous a few years ago. You can get greek online radio ( ελληνικό online ραδιόφωνο ) right in your web browser these days. All you need is a computer and the internet.

When’s A Good Time To Start Your Kids On Music Lessons?
Once they turn at least five years of age, and have the physical control to start learning an instrument, then I think they should start. It depends on the instrument to some degree as well. Our kids had a piano instructor, that wouldn't start teaching piano to children until they were at least seven years old. She thought that prior to that, their fingers simply weren't big enough to play all the keys. Speaking of pianos, you may be wondering what brand to get for your kids. Well, it doesn't have to be the best of the best, like James Bond's brand of watches. We had just an old piano that my father bought years ago. I think he traded in his De Ville Co-Axial replica on it when he was younger. Not a bad decision in hindsight, considering all the use we've gotten out of the piano. Friends of ours also bought just a regular Yamaha electric piano when their kids started playing. Personally I'm glad to have had all the music lessons I did as a kid. And I never had to sell my replica Omega for a pair of drumsticks to get started.
