Encouraging children to practice the piano, guitar, violin, or any other instrument is often easier with positive reinforcement. MusicTeacherNotes helps parents and music teachers motivate kids to practice by using fun features like Music Bucks and Practice Stickers.
Music Bucks are earned by young students as they log practice. Parents set up rewards that children can “buy” with their accumulated Music Bucks. Rewards can be anything that excites a child, such as a movie night, dinner at their favorite restaurant, or another fun activity that motivates them to practice more consistently.
On the child’s account, their current Music Buck balance is displayed along with the list of rewards available for purchase.
Students also enjoy a visual representation of their Music Bucks. The digital bills come in multiple colors and designs, making them feel more like real currency.
When students have earned enough Music Bucks, they can click the "Buy" button to redeem one of the rewards set up by their parents.
Parents are notified when a child redeems a reward, so they know when it has been purchased and can provide it. This system keeps children motivated and parents engaged in their child’s musical progress.
