Kid Guitars

When your child receives her first drum set, she’ll probably be content to simply beat the heads at random for a while. As a parent, it’s important to provide some guidance for playing early on – before bad habits and lack of motivation begin to form. If your kids is already enrolled in a band class, she should be learning how to interpret drum notation, which is similar to that of other musical instruments.

If not, you may need to do some learning of your own before imparting the knowledge to your young prodigy. is a simplified form of musical notation that doesn’t require the player to read music. Rather, the sheet music applies a code to each part of the childrens drum set as well as each action one could take while playing it. For example, a lower case “o” means to strike a certain drum, while a lower case “x” means to hit a cymbal.
