I have been sharing this article with parents and grandparents as much as I can. They all seem to be grateful for it. I think it validates them as parents. How often (again twice today) have I heard something like, "I insisted that my kids take piano lessons, but now they don't continue that with their own children." How often did your parents say to you, "You don't like practicing piano now, but later, when you are grown up, you will thank me."
Well, this article is the next compilation of the increasing science which shows that learning a musical instrument has incredible benefits for our brains. And they are numbered off. I would recommend that you print this article, paste it to your fridge, and read one little article every day, just to help give you the strength (you parents) to cajole, encourage, tease, bribe, and other wise get your children to practice one more time. Not only will your children live longer, you will live with the knowledge that you did the Best Thing You Could Do For Your Children.
