Matching Your Child's Personality with An Instrument
Many parents recognize the immense
benefits of music education and would like their children to become proficient
in playing music. The choice of the instrument is essential for the success of
the endeavor – playing music must come from the soul, therefore the personality
of the player and the instrument played need to be in harmony. Here are some
tips about how to choose the bet instrument for your child, based on the
child’s personality:
-
Instruments for
extroverts – if your child likes to be in the center of attention, loud and
dynamic instruments, such as the saxophone or instruments that attract
attention at a party, such as the guitar make the best choices;
-
Instruments for
introverts – according to experts, the violin and the piano work best for kids
who are quietly behaved and like to be parts of a larger hole;
-
Instruments for
creative and restless kids – creative players like instruments that allow for
improvisations, such as percussion instruments, especially drums. Learning to play on used drum sets is also the best choice for kids who are too energetic or need a way
to reduce tension – there is no better stress-reliever than hitting the drum
with the stick to play the instrument strong and loud.
