I've just given up my plan to teach recorder, not because of Oswin (who still has her accodion and a cimbala) because I've loaned my spare recorder (which hasn't been played in some time) to a morris friend so she can learn to play during the lockdown. Oswin may be able to play on my normal one, but I know she'd be happier copying my actions...
I may still give it a try, even so. I'm teaching her to sing "Go tell aunt Nancy" and "Merrily we roll along" as they are two of the easiest recorder tunes, and it's always easier to learn a tune you can already sing.
