Making Music: a personalized story with your child as the hero

There is something magical about striking a key or strumming a string for the very first time. In this musical tale, your child discovers the joy of melody, rhythm, and creating their own special sound. They might form a family band or simply find the confidence to sing out loud for everyone to hear.

This subject is lovely for children aged 6 to 9 who are just starting formal music lessons and might need a little encouragement.

Questions about this book

Can the story teach a lesson about practicing an instrument?

You can choose Perseverance as the core lesson for the book. Combined with your notes about the instrument they are learning, the story can gently show how practice helps them improve and make beautiful music.

Can I add my child's music teacher as a character?

You can include up to four additional characters, so a beloved teacher is a great choice. You just provide a photo of the teacher and add their name, and they can appear in the book to guide your child's musical journey.
