Practice Tip!
Focus on quality rather than quantity.
More is not always better. It is better to play fewer pieces and play them well. Working in small manageable sections ensures success and mastery of that section. Suzuki said that little children should "practice three minutes, five times a day, with joy." Instead of trying to practice for a set amount of time, work towards a goal for that practice session. End the practice session with an accomplishment. Keeping practice positive will make your child want to play again the next day.
