hi,

anyone can recommend a good violin dvd for young kids to watch?

thanks.

dear violin,

thanks for your valuable feedback. will look into that website that you recommended.

rgds,

patience patience patience..

good one from dr. suzuki - patience is merely the absence of expectations..

maybe let your kid lead you to what they want to do, rather than leading them , for a change.

let kids lead.. they wont be wrong..

found 3 schools teaching suzuki violin, kinderU, parson . and etc
which one is good.. anyone attended any of these?

where to get a 1/32 size violin in hong kong?
how do i know if a 1/16 is too big for my LO?

thanks kl, i am looking into that as well.
nanayaya, i wrote to all the violin teachers and have their replies. are you interested? been meaning to chat with you.
i am going for my first violin lesson in half an hour's time so.. i hope i am still so motivated after the first 'chicken slaughtering ' sound lesson

the materials are used in one of the music school here. instead of 4-6 years old, they are using these for 2 - 3 years old. the course costs around uSD300 for 15 classes but the materials , well found it and costs around USD45 for some.
i dont think i can buy the material and teach it myself, not sure. 

hi,

anyone use the package 'classroom music for little mozarts'?

how do you find it?

nanayaya,

did you check out the parson music?

i am going to take up violin classes all for the sake, weLL MAINly to play thE instrument daily in front of my 16 mths old, just so that she will develop interest in violin..
i dont want to buy one that is too lousy, that it will turn her off , i mean, i am already not good at it.. dont need a lousy instrument to make it worse.
neither do i need one thAt is too expensive, as i would let her play with it.. feel the violin and in case.. she break it.

please recommend a brand or model, where to buy in hk or any website that will ship to hong kong..
please.. thanks..

hey, i found out they use suzuki method for 3 year old at parson music. have u check that out?

dear nanayaya,

thanks for your reply. i'll check out parson.

btw, how old is your daughter and where did she learn violin?
my daughter is 16 months old now. i am thinking of taking up violin myself and play at home for the time being,, so as to develop her interest..

thanks.

i am looking for a good violin teacher to teach my 16 months old toddler when she turns 2.
i guess i'll need some time to search for  violin teacher that is willing to teach a toddler.
also, where can i get good 1/32 size violin in hk.. ?

looking to take up violin lessons myself , so she'll see me practising before i give her , her first violin.
any advice greatly appreciated. thanks.

how about going to music classes meant for toddler? not sure about your area, but in hong kong, there are music classes for toddler, age 2 1/2 onwards, for 2 semesters. playing with instruments, not really playing but an introduction to instrument.. and recognise some basic music symbols, dancing. and all that.
that might be an idea.

i just viewed the samples of wink-to-learn online, it is interesting but unfortunately , it is in simpliefied chinese, so not suitable to be used in hong kong as hong kong is still using traditional chinese.
