We only had to do that once. (And as a piano teacher, I have offered that suggestion to parents who are having trouble getting their kids to practice- if they end up having to repeat everything the next week because they clearly didn’t practice, the kids might have to pay for the lesson, since they just wasted their parents’ money.)

I’m still new at the whole mother thing – my daughter is not even a year and a half old – but it’s something to think about! Plus I’d LOVE a mother’s helper for myself! <3 Great idea 🙂 Thanks for sharing these tips!
