Dear Readers,

Three music education books by Becky Chaffee, Have Fun With Your Music for young musicians, Passion For Practice With Musings By Music Masters for Musicians of all Ages and the Practice Tip Coloring Book are all about presenting inspiration for practicing. Supporting music education is what this website is all about. For young and old, playing music stimulates your brain and therefore overall healthy living. it uses so many skills at once, reading, listening, interpreting, short term memory, long term memory, (depending on which instrument you play) fine and/or gross motor skills, coordination, discipline, creativity, confidence…

In addition, this website sells note cards (and large prints) often humorously illustrating music practice skills. Put a note card in your child’s lunch box or give a set as a gift to a music teacher… Ask about purchasing original paintings by Becky Chaffee.

We hold an annual Youth Music Composition Competition. We accept all levels of students, and try to provide useful feedback for each entry. Creator, Inventor, Artist, Author Becky Chaffee returns the entry fees to the students as prizes. So supporting the work on this website also supports our competition.

We also sell educational work other than music education work. I will discuss this in my next journal blog.
