Anyone here teach piano? We got a piano shortly before everything closed down from COVID. We got the piano for me, but my DDs have both been incredibly interested and love playing around with it. I want to put them in lessons, but think it's going to be a long time before I'm willing to do that right now, as cases are going up in my area, and the general attitude is anti-mask (the one piano teacher I'd planned to use prior to pandemic is staunchly anti-mask and I won't send my kids to her house).
I'm a passable player -- I just play for myself and for the happiness it brings me, but in my childhood I had years of lessons. In normal times I wouldn't consider teaching my kids myself, but at this point I'd like to get them started in some planned way, using a lesson book. I'm wondering if anyone here can recommend a lesson book series to use with an 8 year old and a 5 year old (I recognize it might not be the same book for both ages) that might work for me to start using with them at home to teach them a little more formally.
(Also, I know there's lots of online lesson options these days, but I'm not too excited about those because the past months have taught me that my kids do not do well with learning from screens, and since there's a chance they'll have to do it for school again, I don't want to add other sorts of virtual learning if I can possibly avoid it.... but if you've used a virtual piano lesson and think it's just wonderful and worth it and not like painful virtual school, I'm open to it....)
