2.  THE MOST IMPORTANT TIME FOR YOUR CHILD TO PRACTICE IS THE EVENING OF THEIR LESSON.

3.  SCHEDULE A REGULAR TIME FOR PRACTICE EACH DAY, AND HELP YOUR CHILD STICK TO IT.

4.  KEEP INSTRUMENTS IN TOP MECHANICAL CONDITION.  INSTRUMENTS SHOULD BE CHECKED AND CLEANED BY A PROFESSIONAL AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR.
