We have a Cello and 2 keen 6 year olds who just heard YoYo Ma. I would like someone who can sort out our cello....strings look loose. Demo it for them. Let them 'try' ...assess if they are ready. Give them a few lessons.
COVID details-kids are inside 7 or 8 days and 1 or 2 hiking distanced. Aunty and I out once a week for errands. Prefer someone who is walking distance, minimal contact or sheltering in.
I'm thinking 3 or 4 lessons to see if they could continue, 250 per 30-45 min depending on their attention span?

There's no reason household cast-offs should be destined for the dump—plenty of nearby agencies are more than willing to give your old stuff from paint to cork to teddy bears a second life. Here's how to find them.

I would love to regroup our Art in the Park if people are still here? Thinking one day more for 3-6 year olds and one day for 5-8 year olds but families welcome to join either. $100 per child and adult or $150 per family. Mums and helpers participate to inspire!
However I have broken a small bone in my foot so probably not for 2 more weeks.
Please let me know if Tuesdays and Fridays are still good. Considering a Saturday morning at Tamar option, too.

Although for my two 20 minutes a week is more than enough....

The World Health Agency said Wednesday that kids under 5 should not spend more than one hour watching screens every day – and that less is better
