I played the trumpet all through school, so it's important to me that our baby learn an instrument - I want them to know the value of practice and appreciate music - and some of my best friends were my fellow band members (oh boy, that sounds dorky).
DH's dad is a professional jazz musician and a retired music teacher/band director. Although DH didn't like taking lessons from his dad (he's still way into music), I'm hoping our LO will love music lessons with Grandpa.
Is it important that your kids learn an instrument?
