Kids wants to be cool...
Sometime ago, Isabel saw her cousin play her violin. I guess she's been impressed by her cos the next thing she wants was to learn to play violin.
Some time later while we were shopping, we pointed to a picture of a little girl playing violin, Isabel got upset. I asked her why.
"I don't want people to learn violin"
That's when we realized that she wants to learn it cos she thinks its uncommon and it looks cool to have all the attention while playing the violin.
So now we're not sure whether to send her for lessons or not, what if her interest is only 三分钟热度 .
But in any case, we have to fine tune her attitude first, make sure her heart is in the right interest before we proceed.

Isabel is only so young :) i guess it's okay to let her try it out at some classes for absolute beginners 1st then c if she's still keen on really picking it up. If she quits halfway now, maybe she can pick it up later in primary school. If she still doesn't want to pick it up by then, then have to sell violin on eBay loh ;p
how old is she? i think she is very bright to be able to differentiate the common and the uncommon..
try to understand her more and nurture her line of interest..she will excel.
