D. Head Department Parent Education Cleveland College, Western Reserve University. WE HAVE curious ways of edu cating children. We overcrowd them with music and other outside lessons during the school years, and then stop all these extra lessons when the school term ends. Fcr children who go to camp or leave home for the summer with their parents, discon tinuance of these lessons is necessary. But the average child remains at home nearly all summer. During his school year music lessons, for ex ample, may have proved an added strain too great for his physical or mental health; for some children this is certainly true. But during the long days and weeks of summer at home, time may hang heavily on the child’s hands. After a few weeks of vacation, why is this not the best time for him to take Instrumental music lessons, especially if he studies piano? Some children, Indeed, should take music lessons only during summer. Os course, if you leave it to the average child, he will rule against you with the attitude. “Ah, this is vacation.’’ Does he have adequate 1 experience to arrive at such judg ments soundly? Begs to Give Up Ever so many mothers write me ■ about the child who, eager to begin ‘ lessons on the piano or another in > strument will, after a few weeks or months, beg leave to end and give it SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JUNE 2, 1936 up. Many report that children who make rapid progress at music will lose interest because of the drudgery of practice. Some parents will make great sacrifice to buy the child an instrument, and then let him aban don it before he has had sufficient training with it to make the few early and hard hurdles. No matter how capable the child or skillful his teacher, his desire to escape the hardship of practice in cident to it during the first few years is to be expected. That’s the critical period. See that he keeps at it with short but regular practice periods, without fail. For most, there must be some early handships to win the joys of victory later. Once you are sure of the child’s health and a rea sonable program for his music train ing, see that he sticks to it about as If you thought his very life depended on it, for two or three years at least.
