As we celebrate our nation’s birthday, we also celebrate the birthday of out eleven year old son. He loves the fact that he is born on the fourth of July and this year is no exception. As we celebrate his birthday before going to see fireworks on our community, we will have a birthday party complete with picnic food, (which he loves!) and chocolate cake with peanut butter icing! What could be better!
What he told us he really wanted for his birthday this year was a kids guitar. I am not surprised as several of his buddies have recently gotten kids electric guitars from their parents and seem to really love them! My wife and I did a lot of research and we found a beginner childrens guitar that we think is well suited for him and we can’t wait to give it to him tomorrow! I think it will be another special Independence Day/Birthday! Happy birthday America!
As a parent you are happy if your children are born healthy with all their fingers and toes let alone be able be able to make it in the world. You do the very best job you can and just hope for the best! I remind myself daily that while I may not be the “perfect” parent I do the very best I can and really try to learn from my mistakes as best I can. With four children I feel that I get better. Wiser and more adaptable as the years roll on. With a son heading off to college next year, a daughter about to complete her freshman year in high school, another son finishing his first year in middle school and a daughter excited to begin fourth grade next year we get to experience different parts of childhood and adolescence all at the same time!
Our baby girl will turn ten this summer and she is SO excited because we are allowing her to have a slumber party this year! Weather permitting we will also have a pool party. Our daughter has also informed us that she really wants a childrens acoustic guitar for her big birthday! My husband has really jumped on this idea and believes that he has already found a beginner childrens guitar that will be the perfect fit for our little musician! Heck maybe we will even give her this cute little amateur guitar early so she can show it off to her friends at the slumber party and even play a little ditty for them! All in all I think that his will be a gift the whole family will enjoy!
I have lived a good life. I married young and have a good wife that has stood by me all these years. We have three children, a son and two daughters. Our son and older daughter now have children of their own. Music has always been a big part of our family with all of my children playing musical instruments throughout their lives. Out son still plays guitar at our church and at bars and coffee houses. Now his nine year old son has developed that “itch” to learn to play guitar too. So my son and I are thinking of getting him an early birthday present and have begun looking for beginner childrens guitars!
Boy have times changed. There is so much more to choose from. Now there are guitars for children that are specified for a child’s particular needs. I know we will find the perfect beginner childrens guitar that my grandson will love! I am so glad that our family’s tradition of loving and playing music continues! After all, the family that plays together stays together!
Life is pretty good at our house and for the most part we should be blessed. Money is tight since my husband lost his job in October even thought he is getting a severance pay for now he has had no luck finding another job but we remain hopeful. Our very creative and humorous son says that he really wants to learn to play guitar and says that if we get a guitar for his birthday coming up, he will be so happy that we won’t have to get him any gifts for Christmas. I said to my husband that he must really want a guitar if he is willing to even forego Christmas Of course he knows that come Christmas day we will get him something.
Since our son is only nine years old we will not get his an adult sized guitar but will instead look for beginner childrens guitars. I know he will be thrilled and as parents we aim to please just as long as our children learn to appreciate what they have and not take it for granted. Our son will be pleased to get a beginner childrens guitar as my husband and I have found that they are not as expensive as we originally had thought. Yes it will be a Very Happy Birthday indeed!
January can be such a “blah” month. However I must say that one of the highlights for me is celebrating my baby girl’s birthday, (she will be eight years young this year!) We just celebrated Christmas and my daughter knows that sometimes she can’t get everything she wants because we just spent a good bit of money at Christmas. However just prior to Christmas my wife and I researched beginner guitars as we knew that our daughter would love to learn to play guitar. After a long search, (we wanted to find a good quality guitar that was in our price range), we found a beginner childrens guitar that we believe she will love! We’ll know for sure on January 27th.
About six years ago we bought a kids drumset for our oldest son and it was quite a hit! He plays drums in a band with three of his closest friends. We are delighted that he does in fact plan to go to college. My kids have grown up with music and as both my wife and I have performed in a band at our church. We are holding our breath but also looking forward to January 27th!
As a mom I can honestly say that I am very content. The holiday season is over but the memories linger and will remain dear in my heart! Overall we had a really nice Christmas and a peaceful new year! My only wish is that the season would not be such a “rushed” time so more of it could be spent enjoying the magic of the season. I TRULY loved experiencing the joy my family felt as they really seemed to love their gifts. In particular, I really liked watching my daughter go “crazy” over the beginner childrens guitar we gave her for Christmas. To say she loves this gift would be an understatement!
My husband and I really enjoyed looking at various beginner childrens guitars and now know that our research has really paid off. She seems to already have learned some chords from her learn to play guitar DVD. Our son has been listening to his new Ipod nonstop and that makes me happy. As long as they can get back to school and keep up with their studies, I’ll be able to relax. Best wishes for an awesome 2010!
Ah the rush of the season, as much as we complain, we really wouldn’t have it any other way! Every year we say that we are going to do things more simply but it just never really happens! So my wife and I went ALL OUT! We got MP3 players, laptops, and cool clothing items that our kids will love! One of the most interesting gifts we got was for our eight year old daughter. She has been bugging us for guitar lessons and so after a long search for childrens acoustic guitars, we found a really good quality beginner childrens guitar. We are more than excited to give this super cool guitar for our daughter, the “apple of my eye”!
I get to play Santa Claus each year as the kids leave cookies and milk for me. I love to watch the kids go CRAZY Christmas morning. I know that our daughter will start jammin right away! My wife says that she has also ordered some beginner guitar lessons DVD’s that should arrive tomorrow morning! My kids help keep my inner child alive and kickin!
My “little angel” now age 17 has been the light of my life for many years now. We have watched her go through many transitions which have included various boyfriends, alternative hobbies and activities ranging from tennis to cheerleading, and different hairstyles, (I must admit that I was NOT a fan of the “teased” hair look). One interest that has never wavered in my daughter’s life is her LOVE of the guitar!
We knew when she was a baby that she loved music and so we decided to take a chance and search for beginner childrens guitars. She started playing on a beginner acoustic guitar and now has quite a range of acoustic guitars as well as the mandolin. We have NEVER ONCE regretted the decision to buy her a beginner childrens guitar! Our bright and musically gifted daughter now plays guitar in a band along with several of her girlfriends and they are beginning to take their act on the road! They have recorded several CD’s and have become local heroes in our community! My daughter does plan to go to college but playing guitar will always be her first love!
My son has been dealing with some depression and has been isolating from his peers which has his mother and I concerned. We finally found a very competent therapist who our son seems to like and trust. Last week we had a family session and the therapist informed us of how interested in music our son is. I must admit that we probably always knew this on some level. The therapist feels that if our son could pursue some type of musical hobby it could really help with the depression. After speaking with our son further we discovered that he would love to learn how to play guitar!
My wife and I both are very much in support of him pursuing this interest. Tomorrow I will begin searching for beginner childrens guitars. I think this will be a lot of fun for the whole family. We will let our son choose which beginner childrens guitar he would like. We also hope to get some beginner guitar lessons for him so he can really learn proper technique. I will do whatever it takes to help my son feel the inner joy we all know he possesses.
Selecting the “right” guitar can seem like a difficult task but my husband Ted and I were actually able to look at it as a “fun” project to do together. Our son Andy is quite the musician and we believe that playing the guitar will be a passion he will follow for many years to come. His musical loves span from country, folk, classic rock even classical music! We aren’t yet sure where Andy will yet channel his musical energy.
After doing our research on the best beginner childrens guitar we found the “perfect” beginner guitar that we actually had custom made! Andy is able to explore various musical tastes with a competent teacher and some excellent DVD and books for beginner guitar lessons. I feel that Andy’s passion for music has allowed him to get excited about his life in many ways and has put him in contact with peers who also share this passion! Andy is an excellent student with a bright future ahead of him. Finding what makes your child “tick” can be the key to a happy, successful, and fun filled life!
