I thought one had to sit down, practice, practice, do the boring
practice. And maybe this is the way to become a musical genius. But
then I had a revelation watching my little daughter - she had no
clue what "practice" meant- but she loved making sounds with
various instruments. So I sat down on the floor with her and
started making sounds - and had a ball. I haven't had so much fun

and children - just play!
