Aug 12, 2025
Is your child showing signs they’re ready for music? Parents often wonder when to start piano lessons. Here are 5 simple clues to look for.

1. Curiosity about music
If your child hums tunes, taps rhythms, or shows excitement around instruments, that spark is worth nurturing.

2. Focus for 15 minutes

3. Recognizing patterns
Kids who enjoy puzzles, counting, or spotting patterns often adapt well to reading music.
