Private Lessons
-
Piano instructors for beginning children typically teach 30-minute private lessons. This length of time is appropriate for five-year-old children who have a shorter attention span than older children and may not be able to sit through a longer 45-minute or hour-long lesson.
Group Lessons
-
Small group piano lessons for young children are usually about 45 minutes long. Interacting with other children and playing piano games helps five-year-old children to stay focused during a longer lesson.

Bottom Line
-
Piano lessons for a five-year old will typically be between 30 and 45 minutes long. Not all five-year-old children are able to sit still and focus for this long, so parents should assess their child's capabilities before beginning piano lessons.
