Kids and Music :: How Music Helps a Creative Child
Kids and music is not a foreign concept to me. Ever since I was three years old, I played the piano and kept it up until I was 17 years old. I knew more of music than anything else. It was quite literally, my life. Did I love it? Meh. Did I hate it? Sometimes – Scratch […]
