DD (9) has been learning violin for a few years. She enjoys it and is hard working and serious about practice and has made great progress. However, she is still quite often out of tune when playing. Through practice and focusing on the tuning this does improve a lot for specific pieces she plays but we have to work on it all the time.
Getting to the point, if she sings she is wildly out of tune. I am sure she is not actually tone deaf but her singing is quite painful to hear.
Is there any specific training a child can have or do to improve their pitch? I feel that if it doesn't improve soon it will make making further progress with the violin difficult which would make her sad.
