Some educationalists say that every child should be taught how to play a musical instrument. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

You should write at least 250 words.

Nowdays exists a plethora of opinions about should a child be taught playing a musical instrument or not. A plenty of studies have been conducted, but no sample answer was found.

First of all, it should be mentioned that every chils has a right to choose. There are a lot of children who just do not like some kind of activities. And it can be as sports, Math and painting as playing any musical instrument. That's why I suppose that parents or teachers must not pursue on teaching a kid playing musical instruments. The thing is not only attraction of playing music, but also childrens skills. A child can not go in for musics, but writing, for example, can be his or her cup of tea. I made up my mind not to make my child to do things that he or she would not appreciate.

However, a lot of scholars and teachers are sure that every other child should be taught to play musical instruments. They consider that learning music since childhood is a great contribution in a person's future. Playing musical instruments can broaden child's motor skills and also investigate in his creativity skills. Moreover, experts consume that it is really important for children leasure time. Because instead of sitting in front of the devices, a child would probably practice playing different instruments. Another argument, that some teachers give is that a person, who is taught music from the early childhood is more willingly to become an estrade person, like a musician or even a singer.

In the conclusion, it has to be said that a plenty of opinions exists about this topic and there is no one right answer whether should a child be taught playing instruments or not.
