The Worth of a Challenge


If you give a child a fish, you feed him for a day.
If you teach a child to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.
But if you teach a child to learn, you feed him for a lifetime
and he doesn't have to just eat fish.

First Frets from Simply Violin

First Frets

A product we do have and use.....













I found these little goodies while surfing the suzuki parent forum when a parent got sick and tired of the tape falling off their kid's violin and what's better is the price....a whopping $2.45 each regardless of size and they come in all sizes. oh and did I say no shipping, because there is no shipping folks! I got them very quickly too in my regular mail. When you get it just peel and stick...It says to loosen the strings but I didn't have to, even on Benji's 1/16th size, so I can imagine most everyone can shimmy it up into place.


Want one too? I found mine here:Simply Violin They are a great web resource for not only this product but for other great products and much more....just check them out!

Things 4 Strings™: Violin and Viola Bow Holds

Cool stuff on the web that I found!

Things 4 Strings™: Violin and Viola Bow Holds

this product is fantastic for the young who are learning to have the correct hold and the old who need support! I consider it to be on the pricey side but it is a "one size fits all" so no matter what they would only need one set for life.....maybe some day down the road this will be more than a whim on the web for us.

Violins

So here are the little squirts playing their violins. It was Jacob's idea, and then whatever Jacob does, Benji wants to do too. Jacob plays a 1/10th and Benji is playing a 1/16th size violins. We are learning the Suzuki music.
















Here is Jacob




















Here is Benji
