What should I be practicing as a beginner?

Ive played violin for about 5 years and decided to pick up trumpet. Ive had a trumpet for a little less than a week now and can consistently play a chromatic scale from the C right below the staff to the C in the middle of the staff, but Im just wondering what I should be practicing, and what fun little songs you recommend for my little experience. Thanks!

Ive been playing violin for a bit over 5 years and Ive been wanting to pick up a woodwind instrument, and Im wondering, what instrument would other violinists pick and why.

I dont want to sway opinions but Ive been thinking either clarinet, oboe, or alto sax. My reasons if Im being honest is me not wanting to learn another clef, but still wanting a pretty different sound and playing experience compared to violin. Im excited to hear yalls opinions!
