Kid Guitars
Archive for September 24th, 2009
Giving up the guitar has always been one of my biggest regrets. I started playing the instrument in junior high school and kept it up through college, when life got in the way. My first job out of school was so demanding that I had to budget my free time very carefully. In order to spend time with my fiancée, the guitar-playing habit had to go. Fortunately, I have the chance to reconnect with the instrument vicariously through my son.
He just turned 11 and has been clamoring for an electric guitar for several months now. With his birthday right around the corner, there was no question about what present to get him; all I had to do was find the childrens guitar suitable for a beginner. After mulling over the advantages of electric and acoustic models, I decided to get him an electric ax. Most of his favorite bands play electric, so I figured he would be more motivated if he could emulate his heroes.
Creativity for youngsters with kids instruments
Most kids today have a lot of energy and often don’t know the best way to channel it. Sports can be a wonderful outlet for them. But for the youngster with untapped creative juices, playing an instrument can help teach them discipline while nurturing the artist within, Why not consider kids drum lessons? (provided you can also give them a sound proof studeo).
