So, you want your child to become a brilliant composer, but don't know what you should keep around the house? Thank Shift for this handy guide.
The good news is this: even if you couldn't carry a tune with the help of a team of clydesdales your little one can still become the next Mozart. Just keep plenty of the other essential elements of a musical home in ready abundance and the artistic community will do the rest!
