Chaplin kids age 1,3,6,8,15

So we took a short break from piano because I am now pregnant with baby number 6 due in October! I was so sick though with morning sickness that nothing got done at home. We are now back to school and piano and so I wanted to share and update. My oldest, Noah has memorized In the Hall of the Mountain King and has now chosen to work on The Entertainer which I think is a bit ambitious but I didn't want to discourage him if that is the song that he likes. I videoed him playing both songs for you. My 8 and 6yr olds practice each day but I am finding that if I do not stay right with them, they just play the games and never actually work on a song so I will have to get more diligent on what they are allowed to do during piano time.

Dear Airforcewife!
I hope you are feeling better now!
Such a wonderful progress of Noah!
He figured out the fingers all by himself in the piano pieces! I would recommend Noah to cut sections of the piece since it very long and repetitive. By learning one part well he will enjoy playing this part all the way through. Do you know how to do that?
We currently have a graduation summer recital in progress. Is Noah or other children would like to participate?
