We are going to observe lessons in few weeks, we'll see how it goes. The teacher seems good on paper. She even has a blog about creative ways to teach kids music. She said she usually starts kids at 4 but depending on the child might take 3 year olds. I'm not sure what to look for to know if DD is ready or not. Her concentration and ability to learn things are great and she is quite well behaved even when compared to older kids. Her shyness might be a problem, she needs 15min with a new person to warm up. If the teacher asks her to sing she probably won't (at first). I had her clap some rhythm while listening songs and she did pretty well.
In the mean while I try to explain her why we can not go and buy her a violin today. I ordered a 1/4 size guitar to keep her bit happier and yesterday I had to drag her from a store as she wanted to get a keyboard. I'm thinking we should buy bongo drums and some other rhythm instruments so we could play band at home with her. Where should I look for some, I would like them to be more like a real instrument less like a toy?
