    My 5 year old has also expressed interest and I discussed with my instructor. He said he nor the other instructors he knows would recommend starting until they were 8-9 years old.

    started when he was 4. Go for it if he has expressed interest. I wish my parentswould have listened to me when I expressed interest at an early age.

    Same here. I've paid attention to my sons interests (dancing, playing instruments, etc) and so far, he's stuck to dancing throughout, even as other things have faded into the background (the whistle now collects dust).
