Learning to play the violin is hard work!  The Sprouts curriculum is specifically designed to keep young children engaged and includes original compositions that are interactive incorporating diverse rhythms and musical styles. Online resources, lessons plans, recordings and a Sprouts community facebook page help support the practice at home and keep Sprouts families engaged.
