A friend of mine has a 2 year old grandson. They gave him a drum and sticks, and she thinks he has natural ability. She was interested in already exploring drum lessons for him.
2 sounds kind of young to me, but I'm not a professional educator. Can anyone offer an informed view of the minimum age for starting drum lessons?
She says he has good verbal abilities. I would think, though, that the practical minimum would be after the child learns the alphabet and counting. At that point, maybe it would be feasible then to be able to write out a rhythm for the child and have them try to make sense out of it.
