I remember dressing up for church on Sundays complete with a hat and a pair of gloves. <BR/><BR/>I love Scrabble although I haven't played it in years. <BR/><BR/>I don't know the going rate for piano lessons, but $20 for a half hour sounds a bit high to me.

She must take after her mama.<BR/><BR/>If you have a homeschool message board or any kind of place you can post wanted ads, maybe you could find an older child/teen to teach them both at once. <BR/><BR/>Or maybe you could talk to someone about swapping --you do some scrapbooks for them or make them some cards or something & they teach lessons...<BR/><BR/>Can you get a wood pellet or corn stove? Ours saves us a TON.

Around here, the going rate is about $15 per half hour lesson, which I still think is high. We're fortunate that my goddaughter is a talented and trained piano teacher and gives us a cut rate ($10 per half hour). Otherwise, we'd be struggling to do it. Is there anyone you know through church or work who might be willing to do something similar?Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06688151837498009252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1245683933759118086.post-91551323838688446052008-12-02T14:41:00.000-08:002008-12-02T14:41:00.000-08:00When I was in high school, one of my teachers lent...When I was in high school, one of my teachers lent me her daughter's old piano books. They were really simple yet very detailed about hand positions, and things to practice, and so on: I learned pretty quickly and well with them on my own. Maybe you could look for some used textbooks. The ones I used were Conservatory Canada ones; they go by grade: "Conservatory Canada Piano Grade One" and so on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1245683933759118086.post-16172989964957829492008-12-02T11:05:00.000-08:002008-12-02T11:05:00.000-08:00I was thinking the same thing as DebD, Hannah's sk...I was thinking the same thing as DebD, Hannah's skirt is beautiful. <BR/><BR/>Pity about the piano lessons, I hope you find something more reasonable.<BR/>XXKim Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10145716026026028087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1245683933759118086.post-41165298535156134692008-12-01T20:52:00.000-08:002008-12-01T20:52:00.000-08:00Holy smokes, I didn't know piano lessons were so e...Holy smokes, I didn't know piano lessons were so expensive!
