Katy has wanted to play violin for a while.  We weren't quite sure how to pull it off as we didn't have money for regular lessons.  Last summer I read about a wonderful violin program called  The Violin Book.  I filed it away with plans to use it down the road.  So after our big move, I decided it was a good time to get started.  I figured it would give her something to look forward to as she was adjusting to her new surroundings.

We purchased a used violin from a fellow homeschooler and bought the first four books of the program.  The program looks great and is completely understandable whether or not you have musical training.  It has a friendly tone and we feel almost like we have a teacher right there with us.

Katy is in the beginning phases of the program.  It is exciting to see her practicing and learning.  I look forward to hearing beautiful music soon.
