I played music all the time in the house even when the children were sleeping. I believe this helped to prevent light sleepers and develop music lovers. My husband and I play instruments and sing, I made it a point of having different instruments around the home and all of our children love music and sing and play. Attending concerts and plays and critiquing the music helped to develop their sense for quality music; pitch, timing etc. while growing up our children often listened to music and pretended to be the musician playing, then graduated to playing instruments in school, singing in plays, doing sound, recording, and producing other musicians. Music is such an awesome avenue for stress relief, expressing various moods, communicating and worship. Music is has been around from the beginning. Music is a gift.
