He is also into singing and loves music so much just like my hubby, and they both love the same genre of music. So, they always can relate the kind of songs they add up to their playlist. But some months ago, he told me that he would rather choose to play the piano than with the guitar. And there goes down my hope.. and he was really serious when saying it. I can also sense that he has no interest with guitar since he never once touched or tried to play it. So I thought he would never be interested with it. Not until 5 days ago (December 19), I was shocked when I saw him with my hubby's electric guitar, strumming it, and said.. "Pa, teach me how to play the guitar."
When it comes to his interests, it is not something like we-teach-him-to-do-this-and-do-that, that sort of attitude. We give him the complete freedom to choose what he really like. Because we believe that you can never be good at anything without the passion. Like with drawing, I never taught him to draw, nor convinced him to draw. What happened is that, when I was teaching him the English alphabet when he was 2 years old, I gave him a drawing book to write on to. And he was so smart to learn how to read and write them all in no time, and I am so proud of him. But then he started to draw things, circles, lines and human stick figures. So I let his creativity run wild by giving him more drawing books and drawing materials.
And when I learned how to draw using a mouse with Paint Tool SAI, he then asked me to teach him and install SAI in his computer. And I only taught him once or twice, and he just explored the application on his own, and even shared to me what new things he had discovered. Same goes with guitars, my hubby decided to wait for him to be interested with it, and the waiting paid off. :)
