So we have a 50/50 chance of getting it right
as was mentioned before, any kid can play a violin, and in all of the cases the children will always have a 'oldest' since even in the case of twins one would come seconds before the other.

the house number is different for each of the ways, so the teacher should have figured it out at the 2nd clue.
a child prodigy? who says the kid has to be talented?
