DS is currently taking piano classes. I am sure most parents struggle the same struggle I am going through: asking your child to practice. It is hard to ask a child to practice something over and over, but if they don't practice it is really pointless to learn. I know because I hated practicing piano when I was a child, and I hate it when my mom constantly nagged me to practice back then. I vowed I will not be the one who nag my child to practice.

Recently I tried to practice piano myself and I spend more time with DS at the piano. It is working, he's definitely practicing more.... I hate to say it but it is so much work (!!) Can he just naturally want to practice on his own

Thought I'd post it and see if you guys have any tips / tricks in inspiring your kids to practice without having to nag every day? Any specific beginners books you guys are buying that has really fun / good songs that a child really want to play? Any other tips / tricks / frustration you'd like to share?

Thanks in advance!
