How Early Can a Child Start Taking Guitar Lessons?
Starting your child on a musical instrument is an exciting prospect. Many parents dream of being the proud parent sitting at their child’s music recital, hearing the final strains of a beautiful selection coming from his fingers. However, starting a child too early on an instrument can lead to failure and frustration. Most instruments require some measure of strength and understanding that a small child does not have. If you are considering guitar for your child, here is what you need to know.
Buying a Used Piano
Most music teachers agree that piano is the best first instrument for a young child. Most elementary age children have enough strength in their fingers to play the instrument, it does not require an ear for tuning the instrument, and pianos are one of the best ways to teach basic music theory and note reading. If you are looking to purchase a piano but cannot afford a new one, consider buying a used one. If you do, keep these tips in mind.
