Introduction
As you may already know, Geoff (pronounced Jeff) from Success Music Studio is an expert in multisensory teaching, teaching piano to children as young as four-years-old. However, he has recently expanded to teaching three-year-olds a pre-instrumental music program that ultimately leads into piano lessons.

Best Music Program for Three-Year-Olds: The Need Is Out There for This Music Program
The music program:
- Lately, Geoff has been getting a number of lesson inquiries from parents of three-year-olds as well as the parents of developmentally delayed children who aren’t ready for lessons
- The pre-instrument music program is different from traditional music lessons, incorporating lots of games and singing that are fun while still supporting music learning.
- While some of the activities are just for fun, others work on skills that will be necessary for learning piano and keyboard.
- In addition, the program has a looser structure than music lessons, making it developmentally appropriate for three-year-olds.
- For this age group, the lessons should be in-person (at 12 Linden Rd, Sudbury, MA) instead of online.
Best Music Program for Three-Year-Olds: Is My Child Ready?
Not every three-year-old will be ready for the pre-instrumental music program.
Here are some signs that your child might be ready:
- Can your child communicate well enough to understand, respond to, and follow directions?
- For example, can he follow simple directions, such as, “Place your hands here?”
- Can he count to four?
- Can he identify and name the primary and secondary colors?
- Does he know the names of his fingers? Does he know the song Where Is Thumbkin?
- Can he tell his right hand from his left hand?
- Can he sit and pay attention for five minutes at a time?
Children don’t necessarily need all these skills to start lessons. However, the more skills from the list they have, the more ready they are to start music lessons.
