I reviewed the rule and I am in love with the idea of this give away! What a great prize. My boys are young but have loved Music from the time they wear in my belly. They would bounce and move a lot when I listened to music. One of my boys is 3 and the other one is 7. They want to play an instrument but at the moment we can't afford it!! My youngest already makes up his own songs and my oldest makes up his own dance moves. Having this gift card would be a great way to get them an instrument and begin lessons that they will never forget!! Music will widen their horizons!!

My 7 year old is a violinist! She started at age 4 and we are on our 2nd about to move to our 3rd violin. We keep each violin as a reminder of the fun and hard work that each instrument has brought to our lives! Music camps, time spent with special teachers, and when she is older she will remember Mom and Dad and the investment of time we pour into her, not just the music lessons. She has been asking for a mandolin and I can't wait to see the adventures that instrument will bring!
Was this comment helpful? yes| no|
Wow! We have been mandolin searching and I am impressed with the prices and amount of mandolins available! Love the Washburn M116SW A-Style Mandolin.
