Some educators believe that every child should be taught how to play a musical instrument. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Music
is a part of every culture. In the present era, many schools have started
one
class for
music
or other
activities
. Few educators think that all youngsters should know
one
musical instrument. I partially agree with the given notion. In
this
essay, I will argue, why only
music
is not important. There are other
activities
which can be learned by youths according to their interest
such
as,
dance
, singing, games. On the
one
hand,
music
has a myriad of benefits.
Firstly
, it helps in cognitive development.
Children
study many subjects due to that, they feel stress and
music
instrument give them peace and relaxation. It needs eye-hand coordination
that is
also
useful for manual works.
Secondly
, does
music
enhance brain movements? Definitely yes! New skills are always useful in increasing the brain’s functions. Due to that, many people think
music
should connect with other subjects.
For instance
, according to Oxford, it is provided that,
children
who learnt instruments shown better academic performance compare to those youths who did not learn a single musical instrument.
Hence
, it has useful in the study as well as personality development.
On the other hand
, all youngsters are different in terms of nature, personality and hobbies. It is not compulsory everyone will like
music
. It is evident that always it has an adverse effect if something is forceful. Adolescents may learn
dance
, singing, painting according to their choice. These all have a plethora of benefits on their developments too.
Therefore
, offspring should help in recognising their interest by parents or teachers.
Moreover
, they can be benefited in future.
For example
, there are many shows on television that are related to
dance
,
music
, singing. Youngsters participate and enjoy their talent.
Furthermore
, many
children
share their stories that they were not interested
in particular
action
nevertheless
they learnt. But did not get pleasure while training. In conclusion, few people feel
children
must know at least
one
piece of equipment. I have discussed, for study, peace and pleasure, cognitive development, it is useful. But all
children
are different and they can not like
music
. They may like some other
activities
such
as
dance
, singing, games etc. People should not force to learn only particular
activities
. It can have adverse effects.
