10.Ukulele
Suitable
age group: 5 years of age and above
The
ukulele is a small four-stringed instrument that originated from Hawaii. It’s
become increasingly popular as a children’s first musical instrument,
especially with the rise of new YouTube stars such as Tyler Ward and Christina
Grimmie performing pop covers on their ukuleles.
The
smaller size of the ukulele also makes it an excellent instrument for young
children to start with. The body of the ukulele is easily half the size of a
regular acoustic guitar, making it much more manageable for young children to
hold and play with. This also means it is easier to carry around, as it is much
lighter and less bulky. Children will also find that they are able to grip the
smaller fretboard and finger chords better and be able to strum all 4 strings
with ease.
The
cheaper price of the ukulele makes it an affordable starting instrument for
beginners. For students who are unsure if they will commit to learning music
and do not wish to break the bank on their first instrument, the ukulele will
be the perfect for you. It is also great for beginners who do not know how to
take care of their instrument as the ukulele is cheaper and requires less
effort in maintaining it.
