When is the right time for children to learn music and do they need to start with music theory or go directly to the instruments?

great question, i'm not sure there's a rule but as i'm about to be a first time parent I think i'm definitely gonna introduce instruments first... assuming she's even remotely interested in music. i personally barely learned music theory and don't find it super useful tbh. i know some people get something out of it, but it can be stifling to creativity imho. just seems like it would be useful later on, not as a pre-requisite.
