Cherub 2 loved playing the piano long long ago ... so she received a keyboard complete with stand and stool, and also the Piano For Life instructional set. She has been playing ever since, and is amazed at how much she remembers after 4 years away from the piano !
Last but not least .... Cherub 1 has asked for an acoustic guitar for the last 5+ years. Actually, "asked" is an understatement - he has begged and begged and begged. Cherub 1 does seem to have a real musical ability and picks up most anything quickly. So, needless to say, he was VERY pleased with his new Fender acoustic guitar and is really learning a lot from the Learn & Master Guitar instructional set (which we HIGHLY recommend). After only a week he could already play a few songs. HOORAY !!
The children did ask that their Music Lesson Time and Music Practice Time be scheduled with their school work. So we worked it out in a way that allows everyone some quiet time alone (which is RARE in our house) to learn and practice - this will begin Monday when we start our next school term.

I can hear the music all the way at my house! Wow, you are in for some great times with all those different instruments. We have a flute player, a violin player, and a trumpet player in our home so it is pretty "noisy" around here too.
Thanks for the nice comment on my nature blog, it's nice to know who is reading. :)

How great for your kids! I love "themed" Christmas, and what a great gift to them! Good luck with your music ventures this year! I am thinking of checking out the guitar course!
I'm a new CM blogger, BTW, if you want to stop by and take a look, I'd love to "meet" you. Your blog is great!
Bye for now,
