My mother has been a visual artist/craftsperson since well before my birth, but I was never all that visually oriented. I just wanted to make noise. If I had nothing else, I would beat on an upside-down box. That turned me into a drummer in 3rd grade, and getting official music instruction a year earlier than all the other kids.
So, what if your children turn out to be more visually oriented and not so musical? You give them a box to beat on, and they draw on it?
