'So Luna and Miles both take piano lessons,' John revealed. 'Luna is definitely more into music than anyone.'
He explained how his daughter gets involved in a variety of music-related activities, including a recent performance at school.
'She takes piano lessons, she takes a vocal lesson every Saturday and then she was in the school musical, she played young Nala in The Lion King and she really loves to sing,' John said.
Aside from music, John's daughter is creative in other ways and likes to make things too.
He added: 'She can dance and she can do all of it and she's also very visually creative so she likes to draw and create these structures.
'She built a dollhouse for my youngest daughter out of cardboard boxes and she just likes to design and build. She's very creative.'
The singer gushed how him and his wife Chrissy try to encourage their children to be more artistic.
'Both me and their mother are very creative and we love music so we just try to encourage them to explore and try different things and be as creative as possible,' John said.
Earlier in the conversation, John opened up about how Chrissy cried when she first heard his hit song, All Of Me.
'I sang it to her quietly, I was like I want you to hear this song, I just wrote it for you, we were engaged at the time, she cried the first time she heard it,' he gushed.
Though he laughed that the reaction isn't always quite as strong now.

Trump touts Kid Rock's latest Nashville restaurant after ICE raids briefly shut down musician's steakhouse
President Donald Trump endorsed Kid Rock's lastest Nashville restaurant in a Monday night Truth Social post. Trump called attention to 'The Detroit Cowboy,' which uses the slogan, 'Go where you're celebrated, not tolerated.' It opened last month, with Fox & Friends expected to broadcast from the location Tuesday morning as the eatery officially celebrates its grand opening, with Kid Rock in attendance. 'Congratulations to my friend, Kid Rock (I call him Bob!), on the Grand Opening of his new Nashville restaurant, "The Detroit Cowboy,"' Trump wrote. 'I hear it is a very friendly MAGA establishment, and look forward to going there sometime soon.' The president's nod comes after Kid Rock's Big A** Honky Tonk Rock N' Roll Steakhouse closed its kitchen one Saturday night in mid-May when Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids were happening in the area. The Nashville Scene reported that managers instructed employees without legal citizenship to leave the premises at the Kid Rock-branded establishment, along with several other restaurants on Broadway, Nashville's iconic boulevard. Kid Rock's Big A** Honky Tonk Rock N' Roll Steakhouse is owned by conservative Trump supporter Steve Smith. It was unclear if Smith was aware that illegal immigrants were being asked to leave the kitchens of his restaurants to avoid ICE detection. President Donald Trump congratulated Kid Rock on opening a new Nashville restaurant. 'I hear it is a very friendly MAGA establishment, and look forward to going there sometime soon!' Trump wrote Kid Rock, whose real name is Bob Ritchie, started moving into the restaurant industry during Trump's first term. He opened Kid Rock's Made in Detroit at Little Caesars Arena in late 2017. The next year, he expanded to Nashville with the opening of Kid Rock's Big A** Honky Tonk Rock N' Roll Steakhouse. But in 2019, Made in Detroit closed its doors on the heels of Kid Rock making incendiary comments about Oprah Winfrey. At the time, the stadium's owner said that Kid Rock had 'voluntarily decided not to renew' his licensing agreement, according to the Detroit Free Press. The new restaurant, the Detroit Cowboy, is taking over the space of Joe Muer Seafood, a Detroit mainstay that had its first out-of-state location in Nashville. In a post previewing the Detroit Cowboy, Kid Rock hinted that he was still angry about Made in Detroit's closure. 'A small group of very bad people thought they cancelled me and my restaurant in Detroit in 2020,' he wrote. 'All you dumba**es did was hurt the city I LOVE,' Ritchie added. The Instagram post shows Kid Rock with his white cowboy boot up on a table, with a large painted eagle display at his back. Kid Rock has been a strong supporter of Trump's MAGA agenda. He was one of the entertainers at last summer's Republican National Convention and has made several trips to the White House since the president's January swearing-in. Ritchie facilitated an across-the-aisle dinner between Trump and liberal comedian Bill Maher. He also joined Trump in the Oval Office in March as the president signed an executive order to prevent fans from being victims from ticket scalping scams.
