Kid Guitars
Archive for February 15th, 2010
My son has a really special birthday coming up and I want to make it memorable. Yes our son will soon be facing the ripe old age of five! He says that because he is now getting older and will soon be facing the responsibilities and rigors of kindergarten, he thinks he should get a drumset for his birthday just like his older brother. Ok! My wife is a little leery but I think it’s just great! Of course we won’t get him a full size drumset like his brother has. We will instead look for three piece kids drumsets. I think my wife will be thrilled when she sees that a kids drumset is not as expensive as she had envisioned.
I think we should let the kid fulfill his fantasy as every child needs to have time to explore and figure out what really interests him. His older brother will get such a kick out of this and will probably even give his kid brother a few pointers. I think when it’s all said and done our boys will have a pretty “rockin” birthday!
Ever since I was 11 years old I’ve had a passion for playing the guitar. While I have gone through countless instruments during my playing career, I’ve kept some of my favorite models to pass along to my children. Now that my daughter is eight, she is beginning to inquire as to when she will be allowed to pick up an instrument.
Before I impart some of my most cherished possessions, I want to be sure that they will be properly taken care of. It’s not that I don’t trust her, but I know that children’s things have a tendency to take a good deal of wear and tear. I’ve decided to give her one of my first guitars for her next birthday, although I will look into some guitar cases for kids before I hand it down.
