Kid Guitars

Summer is here again and for our family that means another batch of birthdays.  As luck would have it, all of my three children have birthdays over the summer.  My daughter has a birthday is July and both of my sons have birthdays is August.  I try to save up for this time of year but it is hard when you are on a tight budget.  My husband has been out of work for two years now and still can’t find a job so we have been supporting the entire family on my salary.  My husband does get some unemployment but it isn’t much.  Like so many Americans we try to make a dollar stretch as far as we can.

Our illustrious and musically gifted daughter says that she wants an electric guitar for her birthday in the worst way!  She says that if we get her a guitar for her birthday we don’t have to get her any Christmas gifts, WOW!  This kid is really serious.  Of course when Christmas rolls around, we will get her something.  I wasn’t so sure about spending money on an electric guitar but my husband says that because she is only ten and small for her age we could get her a kids electric guitar which would be a lot cheaper.  Ok, now you’re talking.  Thank God for the internet because after searching for cheap kids guitars, I see that we really do have more good quality childrens electric guitars to choose from than I originally thought.  My daughter will be happy to know that not only will she”score” on her birthday but Christmas isn’t looking too bad either!
