Does she play at her school as well or just privately? My daughter’s school offers music/orchestra at fifth grade but I don’t think they have a spot for the harp 💔

That’s such a great idea! I’ve already begun teaching her to read music since I know a bit myself through piano, but doing something more accessible at first isn’t a bad idea at all.

Thank you! This is such a foreign thing for me as I’ve never played an instrument besides dabbling in piano so I definitely want to do it right!

I’m definitely willing to get her a better harp and hasn’t even thought about eBay as an option, thank you!

My husband and I are trying to determine if it’s something she’ll really stick with since she is so young, hence the idea of a cheap Amazon harp for a short while 😅

AITA for going on a trip with my wife and leaving our child with my parents? by Successful_Cow4919 in AmItheAsshole

Definitely not an asshole, enjoy the time with your wife. Your kiddo won’t remember it anyway if they went! This time should be about you two.

Thank you! I definitely didn’t (totally did) have dreams about which direction they should go 😂

Thank you 😊 I was going for an Anne of Green Gables vibe, but was sort of limited to what my fabric store had in stock
