Today we’re going to give you 7 tips for teaching your child guitar. Learning an instrument is a fantastic way for your child to develop a series of abilities that can be of great use later in life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, this is a great opportunity to bond with your child and create lasting memories and give them a gift for life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who knows? Your little ones could be added to our list of <\/span>kids with extraordinary guitar talent<\/span><\/a>, and there is only one way to find out!<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep in mind that teaching a young child to play the guitar is a bit different than teaching a teen or a 20-year-old. It requires slowly teaching them the basics, picking kid-friendly songs, and having a lot of patience.<\/span><\/p>\n

Without further ado, here are the 7 tips for teaching your child guitar.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bust Out Your Best Solo<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u201cWhy bother learning guitar?\u201d they\u2019ll ask. \u201cBecause you can be a goddamn rockstar, kid. Watch this\u2026 \u201d and then you bust out <\/span>that solo you\u2019ve been working on<\/span><\/a> for the past few weeks. It\u2019s important to provide a solid incentive to learn the instrument, and what better way to do that than with some inspiration?<\/span><\/p>\n

Start With Teaching Good Form<\/span><\/h2>\n

One of the most important things beginners need to learn is <\/span>how to hold the guitar and maintain good posture<\/span><\/a>. While that may sound boring to a child, it\u2019s absolutely necessary for them to maintain focus later on. You won\u2019t stand a chance of teaching them anything if their fingers, wrists, and neck are hurting after five minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Move on to Warm-Up Exercises<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u201cAre we ready to play yet, dad?\u201d they\u2019ll now ask. But there\u2019s one more thing you need to cover before you can move on to the rock\u2019n\u2019roll version of Mary Had A Little Lamb (which has a wicked drop at the end, by the way). Show your kid <\/span>how to properly warm up their fingers<\/span><\/a> before playing so they can build strength in those tiny digits.<\/span><\/p>\n

Teach Single Notes and Basic Scales<\/span><\/h2>\n

Okay, the moment has finally arrived. Time to <\/span>jam<\/span><\/a>! Even though you can\u2019t skip theory completely, you shouldn\u2019t dwell on it. That\u2019ll only bore your child to tears and make them question your rockstar status. Teach them some practical <\/span>single notes and scales<\/span><\/a> so they can feel the music coming from their own hands.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finish With A Simple Chord Progression<\/span><\/h2>\n

Once they\u2019ve mastered playing single notes without it sounding like a cat being strangled, you can finish off with a simple chord progression. Don\u2019t aim for more than two chords in one sitting. Make sure they become comfortable with moving their fingers between those two chords on the fretboard before piling more chords onto them. And don\u2019t even think about <\/span>teaching barre chords<\/span><\/a> yet unless you want to hear swear words you didn\u2019t know they knew.<\/span><\/p>\n

Be very patient<\/span><\/h2>\n

This is perhaps the most important tip on this list. Simply said, you need to be very patient with your child. This is especially true when learning an instrument, as <\/span>frustration<\/span><\/a> may creep in at some point. You want this to be a positive and enriching experience, not a trauma that has to be sorted out at therapy decades later.<\/span><\/p>\n

So listen to your kid, and go at her pace without pushing too much. This will make the experience fun for both of you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Make it fun<\/span><\/h2>\n

Now that you have understood how important being patient is, it’s time to make it fun! Making it fun is vital for your child to like the experience long enough to learn to play. How do you make it fun?<\/span><\/p>\n

Well, you can talk about the guitar you have and teach her about the different parts. Then take her to a music store and show her other guitar types. Another way is to attend a concert and talk about the music.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You can also let her pick a <\/span>song<\/span><\/a> or lick that she really wants to learn. In short, there are tons of ways to make the experience fun!<\/span><\/p>\n

We’re sure that these 7 tips for teaching your child guitar can help you get started with your kid. As far as when it’s a good age to start, some people would say that at 10 years old. However, there are no hard and fast rules. You just need to make sure that your kid isn\u2019t overwhelmed.<\/span><\/p>\n

If starting with the guitar seems like a daunting task, then why not try an instrument with fewer strings? You can teach them <\/span>how to play the ukulele<\/span><\/a> first and then let them graduate to the guitar later down the line.<\/span><\/p>\n
