Piano, as an elegant art, has always been loved and welcomed by everyone, and most parents have begun to pay attention to their children's piano learning. Children's piano learning can not only develop intelligence, mobilize body organs, and exercise coordination, responsiveness and memory. At the same time, piano can also improve children's temperament and cultivate children's habits and psychological quality in learning. So how old is it appropriate for children to learn piano?

How old is it suitable for children to learn piano?

Generally, it is more appropriate to start learning piano at the age of 5. It is not always necessary for children to practice the piano as early as possible. Because the keys of the piano are heavy, children are too young to be weak with their fingers, and children are too young to concentrate continuously, which leads to low efficiency in learning the piano.

If children under the age of 5 start practicing piano intensively, it will easily lead to joint, ligament and joint damage. If you practice for a long time or if your child exerts too much force, it may cause epiphysis damage and cause changes in the length and thickness of your fingers to varying degrees. With the increase of age, the defects of children's fingers will become more and more obvious, and in severe cases, a series of situations such as the fist can not be held normally will occur.

Under normal circumstances, a 7-year-old child has been in the first grade at least. At this time, the child's attention began to concentrate slowly and his fingers became more powerful. At this time, learning the piano is more efficient. In addition, to protect children's hands, practice some simple tunes to warm up before practicing the piano, so that children's fingers and wrists can move first, otherwise it will easily damage children's hand muscles and ligaments. Don't let your child's hands touch cold water immediately after practicing the piano, so as not to damage the joints.
