In this episode of the Extraordinary Family Life podcast, Greg and Rachel Denning explore how parents can encourage their kids to practice musical instruments while fostering a love for lifelong learning. Music isn’t just about developing skills; it’s also a powerful tool for promoting lifelong learning and brain development. One coaching participant from their 28-Day Challenge ( https://courses.extraordinaryfamilylife.com/bundles/extraordinary-family-life-bundle ) asks, “How do you address problems with kids that don’t want to practice musical instruments? I feel like it’s so important for their education to have this skill, but I’m so tired of trying to get them to practice. It’s always a struggle. They say they love playing but hate to practice. I seriously feel like a crazy person going between wanting them to play and telling them we are going to cancel lessons because it’s pointless to pay for them if they don’t practice.”
Greg and Rachel tackle this question head-on, offering strategies to turn practice time into an enjoyable experience that aligns with the goal of lifelong learning. They emphasize how setting realistic goals, maintaining balance, and fostering a genuine love for music can help kids see it as a lifelong pursuit, not just a task. Learn how to create an environment that encourages both lifelong learning and joy through music, making it a lasting part of your family’s journey.
If you're struggling with music practice in your family, this episode is packed with practical advice to help your children embrace music as a part of their lifelong learning path.
