Ten tips for nurturing children's musical talent
Not every kid is the next American Idol. But some of those who aren't might find their way to an alternative rock band, a hip-hop group or even a philharmonic orchestra. They might just enjoy singing in a chorus in high school or playing the piano or guitar on their own for fun throughout their lives. Music-making is still valuable, even if your child is not fated to be a rock star. Here are 10 tips from the American Music Conference on how to nurture your child's musical spirit.

What parent hasn't heard their child complain of a stomachache, headache or just generally not feeling well on a school morning, only to learn later that there was more to these physical symptoms than Tylenol or Pepto-Bismol could cure? Though the headache or nausea may be quite real, for many children, they could be the manifestation of something more complicated than a germ or virus.
Get test help
To help students with more serious anxiety disorders, Massachusetts General Hospital offers suggestions on its web site.

Which Preschool Is Right for Your Child?
Most parents start their child's education with some form of preschool. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, nearly 60 percent of children ages 3 to 5 attend some form of center-based child-care program. But in South Florida, the choices seem endless; there are hundreds of preschools in the tri-county area, many with vastly differing principles and methods of teaching. How to choose?
What You Need To Know When Choosing A Private School
This month, parents throughout South Florida will be checking out private schools, seeking the best possible school for their children. Since most private schools in the area start the enrollment process in January, parents will be visiting schools, collecting information, submitting applications and posting deposits.
