Hello. A quick theory question from a parent. I've four little monsters: they've been playing for a while, but haven't followed the ABRSM programme. My daughter is quite keen to sit her theory exams: she's 12, and G5 should be just right for her. One of my other kids is keen too, but while he could manage, I think he's perhaps too little for "exam stress". How young is too young? (I know it depends on the child!) I'd be interested in hearing how your kids felt about the exams, and how old they were when they did certain theory grades. Thanks.
