Piano Lessons for Summer Vacation

The school year is almost over.
What plans do you have
for your children for summer vacation?

Will they be involved sports?
Swimming?
Vacation Bible School?
Summer camp?

Why not consider enrolling them
in piano lessons?
The benefits are far reaching.
You see, it’s not only about music study.

Piano study helps increase math scores,
test scores and I.Q.
In fact,
kids who continue their playing piano
through their teenage years
average about 100 points higher on the SAT.

What’s more,
undergraduates who major in music
have the highest acceptance rate
into medical school, at 66%.

Piano study helps to raise self-esteem.

Piano study helps children focus,
helps them develop concentration skills.
                               
Playing piano is good for your health.
Research reveals
that those who are involved
in creating music
on a regular basis
experience less anxiety,
loneliness and depression.

Low cost piano lessons
are available  in the beautiful city
of Wyandotte, MI
 
Let’s get your child involved
in the study of piano.
The benefits are a lot more
than music study.
Your child will reap
a lifetime of benefits.

One Student not returning to piano lessons. . .

One of my young piano students
will not be returning to lessons,
at least, not now.

It makes me feel sad.

:( 

Her grades in school started to drop,
so her parents decided
to limit her outside activities.
And one of the “outside activities” that was dropped
is music study.

Heavy sigh.

I wish parents would get it.
I mean,
I really wish they would get it.
Limit her tv time.
Limit her computer time.
Take away phone time.
But take away piano?
Seriously, folks,
I just don’t get it.

OK.
I respect that parents have to decide
what is best for their children.
I really do.
But I think some folks need a little help
and seeing what that really is.

Studies have shown
that preschoolers who received piano lessons
scored 34% higher than their nonmusical counterparts
in tests measuring spatial-temporal reasoning,
which is the brain function
used to understand math, science and engineering.
Piano students have improved reading scores
and enhanced memory.
Piano study helps
with complex thought process.
In simpler terms,
 piano lessons make you smarter.. .

Studies also show
that piano lessons
help to raise a child’s self-esteem
and helps them with concentration
which, in turn, can help with homework and study habits.

There’s a disconnect here
and I’m not too sure what to do about it.

I think, maybe,
if the piano student 
was a child of musician parents,
they would get it.
But, it's sort of like,
the parents don't know
what they don't know.
Does this make sense???

Anyhow,
I'm sorry that this happened.
I wish I could help.
I wish I could do something
that would bring her back into music study. ..

. . .maybe I need to design a parent session,
to be taken before the child starts lessons.
In this session I would detail
some of the above information
and a lot more. . .
. . .something that really details
the Benefits of Music Study. ..
