🏡 Family Fiddle for Homeschoolers: A Shared Musical Journey
When families from Scotland and Ireland first came to America, many brought a fiddle with them. That small instrument wasn’t just luggage—it was a link to home, a way to bring joy into their journey, and a tool for bringing people together.
The fiddle played a vital role in building community and lifting spirits through music and dance. Even more beautifully, it was a way for parents to pass down their culture and stories—by ear—from one generation to the next.
Today, your homeschool family can tap into that same tradition.
The Family Fiddle Subscription Program is designed for families to learn Celtic fiddle by ear, together at home—no need for sheet music or previous experience. Whether you’re seasoned musicians or picking up a bow for the first time, this program encourages families to:
- Build strong bonds through shared learning
- Discover musical creativity through aural tradition
- Learn at your own pace, with flexible video resources
- Deepen understanding of Scottish and Irish heritage
🎻 Perfect for morning music time, cultural studies, or just creating joyful moments at home.

🎶 How It Started: A Vision for Family-Based Musical Learning
The idea for the Family Subscription Program came from conversations with homeschool-minded families and educators who value real-life learning, family connection, and meaningful traditions.
Music teacher & educator Colin MacLeod brings more than 40 years of experience in Celtic and Scottish fiddle, having taught children and adults across Scotland, Australia, and the United States. His own journey began when his father taught him a tune by ear—just one tune—but it opened a world of creativity and tradition.
Now, Colin brings that same joy to families who want to grow closer through music.
This online program is crafted especially for homeschool families looking for:
- A screen-light, music-rich experience
- A flexible activity that meets across ages
- A way to connect to cultural roots and learn by ear
- Opportunities to enjoy music together without pressure
Whether you’re adding to your homeschool rhythm, building a family tradition, or just curious to try something new—this program is for you.
