DS is 5 and a half and started to learn on the violin. He goes to lesson once a week for 30 mins. He loves it; he said he would like to go every day. We are not a musician family no one plays on any instrument; no one knows anything about rhythms, reading music, etc... The teacher would like from us to practice at home with him every day for 5-10 mins. But how? He is just learning how to hold the violin, but how should we help him? I have no idea how to hold the violin. The teacher sent home some paper, but it is not so clear for me. I do not want him to learn the wrong way how he holds the violin, but I also do not want him to not practice at all. He is keen on practicing, asks me every day to practise with him.
Any idea how I can help him?
