As the parent of a pre-schooler, I'm starting to feel that 'back-to-school frenzy' that starts to build at about this time of year. I'm beginning to become more aware of all the busy preparation that's involved and what I have to anticipate in the years to come. A large part of me is very excited for Max. Picking out backpacks & lunchkits, getting all the pencil crayons, erasers and glue. I so loved school as a little girl and going shopping for school supplies was a favorite thing to do with my Mom. As a mom now, I can see how it can be stressful time of year as well.
Added to an ever-growing list of school supplies & clothes needed to start the school year off right, there's the extra-curricular activities to choose from like sports, art classes, or music. It can get overwhelming, and depending on where you live, the choices may be difficult to choose from. Especially if you have a busy household to begin with.
I read a really great article from one of my favorite blogs on extra-curricular music study and how it relates to a child's success in the classroom. It points out a number of really great reasons to make music lessons a part of your fall registration list of to-do's.
