Islay and Lillian are my granddaughters and they live in a small town called Wawa in Northern Ontario. This small community offers a variety of creative endeavours for children. As a result both the girls had the advantage of taking lessons in dance and music. They both took piano lessons and eventually they moved to guitar lessons. The guitar has become their favourite instrument and they are now singing and playing the guitar to entertain. Islay as you will see on the website is especially interested in entertaining.

DANCERS

What wonderful dancers

Guitar playing and singing won over dance

Singing and Guitar

Watch Lillian’s facial expressions as Islay sings and plays the guitar.

As a result of their great love of music our family is often entertained by Islay and Lillian. This musical event occurred one day and I just happened to video tape it. When I viewed it I couldn’t help but see the humour in it. I hope you do to.

Learning Together

They are quite the musicians. They can only get better.

Because the girls love to do things together they often take turns singing or playing the guitar. When you watch this video you will see that this is a learning experience for them.

Performances

“Their determination and dedication brought them to the harmony they achieve today,”
