Musical Instruments and Homeschooling


Do you incorporate music lessons into your homeschooling curriculum? If you're a musician yourself, it's probably a giant YES! If not, perhaps your children take music lessons outside the home? Either way, music is a very important educational element that will help your children flourish. There is even some evidence that music lessons improve a child's ability to achieve greater success in math!

Reverb is currently offering musicians in all shapes and sizes with great savings on high quality musical instruments. I'm currently taking a look at their musical instrument shop and thinking about my own children. My husband is a drummer and we currently have 3 drums sets in our basement. Fortunately only one is assembled! lol Our children are definitely interested in music, but we're in those early stages of knowing where to focus their attention. They currently seem equally interested in drums and guitar, so which way to go is the current question at hand.

If they opt for a guitar, there's a good chance they'll eventually want to buy electric guitar's as that's what they've been exposed to, but who knows! My daughter has also expressed an interest in learning keyboard, which would be my choice too, if I were so inclined.

This exciting online instrument shop is currently offering a Summer sale with savings up to 50% on select items. Just to clarify, this isn't a children's music store... it offers something for everyone. If you're a professional musician, you'll find great prices on essentials and those not so essential items that you've been dreaming of purchasing. What if that must have item is on sale? Maybe you should look!
