3 ‘Ridiculously Simple’ Ways To Incorporate Music Education In To The Unschooling Lifestyle

Most unschooling parents tend to think of piano lessons or any specific instrument lessons as very structured, and therefore may not always be a good fit for their kids. 

However, I’m here to say that, it is not always true. There are many different ways in which, music lessons can be incorporated in to the unschooling lifestyle without actually following a thorough and structured program. 

In this post, I will introduce all those three methods to you. So here goes. 

Keeping A Lot Of Instruments 

Yes, simply keeping a variety of musical instruments around the house has helped numerous unschooling parents to introduce music in the homeschool and to get older kids into instrument studies, without too much trouble.

Just having the instruments around, arouses curiosity in younger kids, who start to play with the instruments and older kids often find their way to online music lessons very easily with little urging from their parents.

Music History, Composer Or Instrument Studies, Movie Musicals

Keeping books around the house or simply borrowing books that teach about the history of music (such as the different eras in music), or composers, or musical instruments is one way to get your kids interested in music.
