Where we live it is very cold, and she chose trumpet for a year, and had to practice inside, and frankly it was painful. If you live somewhere warm, let them do anything. If you live somewhere cold, I would gently push away from the trumpet. That being said she also played piano and cello, and still plays those, the trumpet was a one year experiment and she decided against band and for orchestra. Around here Band is a lifestyle and Orchestra is another activity. We did not need another lifestyle, we have a few all encompassing ones.
