My beloved grandson told me that what he really wants for Christmas this year is an acoustic guitar. When I heard this I thought this was an interesting yet unexpected request. However after speaking with my daughter, (her mother) she assures me that other kids my grandson’s age also like the guitar and some of them have gotten a kids guitar for their birthdays, Christmas etc. I would like to surprise my grandson and get him a kids acoustic guitar for Christmas but I haven’t a clue where to look.
My daughter said that she had already begun looking at acoustic guitars for kids online and believes she has found one that my grandson will really like. I want to take a look before making my final decision but heck if my grandson really wants it then I’m all for it! At his age I can’t even conceptualize wanting such a gift but again it was a different time. Even though times have changed people essentially stay the same. I look forward to more bonding time with my grandson!
My husband told me that we have to get our adorable little son a childrens electric guitar for Christmas! One of my husband’s closest friends got his son a kids guitar last Christmas and my husband says it’s so cute and we just HAVE to get our son one! My husband is really just a “big kid” himself and he’s been having a ball searching for kids guitars online. My stepson has been playing acoustic guitar for awhile and just recently formed a trio with two of his friends and they are hoping to start performing locally.
We have a lot of fun in our family and for that we are truly blessed. However someone has to run the finances. We have a lot of people to shop for this Christmas and we have to stay on a budget. I must admit however that on Christmas day our son will be thrilled beyond belief when he sees the cool guitar his parents bought for him!
My mom bought me my first guitar when I was only seven years old and it was an acoustic guitar. As much as I love playing on an acoustic NOW, as a youngster all I wanted to do was ‘rock out!’ As a kid who idolized Eddie Van Halen and Slash, I wanted to play a flying-V, which is something that you couldn’t get for kids back then. I didn’t know what I was missing
Now, parents have an easier time finding electric guitars for kids, as many guitar companies are expanding their reputations to include children’s lines. While acoustics are good starts, if you have a kid who definitely wanst to “rock”, I would recommend an electric. It’s a little loud, but hey, that’s what earplugs are for, mom and dad. Also, electrics just sound better. What a great Christmas gift for your kid this year!!
My wife told me that we must get our adorable little daughter a childrens electric guitar for Christmas! Her best friend just got her son one and my wife says it’s so cute and we just HAVE to get our daughter one this year! I have to admit that even though I wouldn’t have thought of it, the idea has really grown on me! My wife and I are big kids ourselves and we have already been having a ball looking at electric guitars for children online. Our nephew has been playing acoustic guitar for awhile and has recently formed a trio with two of his friends and they are hoping to start performing in coffee houses. I know our daughter looks up to him.
We have a lot of fun in our family and for that we are truly blessed. However someone has to run the finances. My wife and I will have to have a budget as we have a lot of people to buy for this Christmas. I must admit however that come Christmas, our daughter will be thrilled beyond belief when she sees the cool guitar Santa (i.e. her parents) have bought her!
Last month we bought our daughter a kids acoustic guitar. She couldn’t be any happier than a pig in mud! All of our children love music and do play instruments, our daughter plays the piano and the flute and our youngest son plays the drums but is now interested in playing guitar but not just electric guitar. He wants to play acoustic guitar like his buddy Tad. So I guess now we will go guitar shopping yet again.
I think we will look at some childrens acoustic guitars as I saw some online and they seem to be quite affordable and very good quality. Our son is very ambitious and gets along well with his peers. He is a Cub Scout and has a nice little group of neighborhood buddies. He and Tad say they want to perform together and be ‘Rock Stars!’ Christmas is around the corner and we know that a kids guitar will make our son so happy and he will learn to play guitar quickly because he appears to really have some musical ability. This is really very exciting for the whole family!
My kids love life and put their heart and soul into whatever interests them. My oldest loves horses and if it were up to her would spend all her time at the barn. My middle daughter wants to be a actress. Now my youngest and very much full of personality says that one day she will grow up to be a country singer like some of her idols. She knows that Christmas is coming up next month and more than anything my daughter really wants an acoustic guitar too! So I guess my enthusiastic husband and I will be looking at acoustic guitars for kids. Sounds like fun and I know that because my daughter is so excited, it will be a very positive experience!
Today there seems to be some really cool beginner acoustic guitars for children. A brief search online pulled up a couple of websites that my husband and I have already bookmarked. Even though children’s interests can change just as the wind blows, my husband and I feel proud that our children have interests and we don’t have to constantly pull them away from the many electronic devices available to kids today. As parents we feel very much blessed!
My son told me that in music class at school his teacher has encouraged the class to learn to play an instrument because learning an instrument has many benefits and is also very fun! He is very excited because his friend, Kenny who wants to play acoustic guitar and my son thinks it would be so very cool if he and his friend could learn to play guitar together! I must admit that I have been thinking that it would be a good idea to have my son learn to play an instrument, be it guitar or drums or whatever!. So I guess I’m game.
I called Kenny’s mother and she said that she found a beginner acoustic guitar that seemed to be well suited for kids their age. Karla’s mother pointed me to some websites and I am happy to see that kids guitars aren’t as expensive as I thought they would be. Until I began this research I wasn’t even aware that they made acoustic guitars for children. I’m so glad that my son and Kenny can learn to play such a wonderful instrument together!
I am a so glad that my son wants to pursue his interest of playing guitar. I have loved music and have played electric/acoustic guitar for years and I know all the joy it has brought me. He gets so excited when I bring out the guitar and I decided that this Christmas I will get him a beginner acoustic guitar. I will begin my search tomorrow for kids acoustic guitars. I know my son will be absolutely ‘over the moon’ and it will hopefully be an incredible bonding experience for both of us!!
My son has been dropping hints that we could tour the world playing together! Even though I know it won’t happen I think it’s a really cool idea. I would love to play teacher, but I will find a competent instructor to teach him proper technique. Now if he would just show this much enthusiasm for other things, like cleaning her room, we’d really be in business!
My husband has always loved country music, blue grass music and folk music. His enthusiasm and joy now seems to have rubbed off on our youngest daughter. My husband has played acoustic and electric guitar most of his life and our daughter seems to truly relish the time she gets to spend watching her father play. We know that for Christmas this year we must surprise our daughter with her very own acoustic guitar! My husband has some contacts who really know guitars and know where to find quality beginner kids guitars.
We are both thrilled to know that we can find a good affordable beginner kids guitar and have it picked out and ready well before Christmas! Our oldest son also shares his father’s passion and owns his own acoustic guitar. We also started him on a kids guitar with amazing results! I could not imagine our lives without the sound of music!!
I am a so glad that my son has decided to pursue his interest of playing guitar. I have loved music and have played electric/acoustic guitar for years and I know the joy it has brought me throughout my life. He loves it when I bring out the guitar and start to play. I decided that for his birthday I would get him a beginner acoustic guitar. An exhaustive search for acoustic guitars for kids brought forth a rather nice selection from which I found the ‘perfect’ guitar for my son! He had no idea that I had taken a chance and purchased this for his birthday! The day of his birthday arrived and I saw true joy on my son’s face that I haven’t seen often enough throughout his life!!
I look forward to the day that my son and I will have to actually “jam” together. Even though I would like to play teacher, I will find a competent instructor to teach him proper technique, (probably my friend’s oldest son who gives lessons and has been playing guitar for years). I see this as a great bonding experience for both of us that will hopefully bring us closer for years to come!
