Discussion Questions:
Personal Background and Music in Homeschooling:
How has your personal background, like Yvette’s, influenced your approach to incorporating music into your homeschooling curriculum?

Do you agree with Andrew’s view that some music can be considered "junk music"? What criteria do you use to determine the quality of the music you or your children listen to?
Importance of Classical Music:
Andrew Pudewa mentions the value of classical music for mental, physical, and spiritual nourishment. How do you feel about introducing classical music to your children? Have you already implemented this in your home?
Child Development and Music:
How do you feel simple children’s songs like "The Ants Go Marching" contribute to early childhood development? Have you used similar methods to teach other concepts?
Music and Subjectivity:
Andrew discussed the objective quality of music versus subjective preference. How do you balance personal preference with objective quality when selecting music for your home?

Auditory Environment:
What steps do you take (or could you take) to reduce auditory pollution in your home to create a more conducive environment for learning and music appreciation?
Music as a Maker vs. Consumer:
Andrew highlighted the shift from being music makers to music consumers. How important do you think it is for children to learn to make music rather than just listen to it? What methods have you employed or considered for teaching music?
