In this category, you'll find ukuleles in sizes, colours and shapes that are suitable for children. Naturally, they're suitably priced too! The ukulele is smaller than a guitar making it more manageable for smaller hands. Having four strings (instead of six on a guitar) means learning to play chords is easier and a ukulele book can be a great help with this. A ukulele has a bright, cheery sound and because its strings are made of nylon, they're comfortable to play. There are different types of ukuleles available, so which one is best for your child? Read on to find out more.
Best ukulele for children?
In reality, due its modest size, virtually any ukulele is suitable for a child. For the youngest learners, however, a soprano ukulele may be the best choice. This type of uke isn't just for young learners though. There are plenty of adults who choose to play a soprano ukulele too! From about the age of 8 years upwards, a concert ukulele or even a larger tenor ukulele can also be considered. If the ultimate aim is to learn to play the guitar, there are even ukuleles that have six strings! These nylon-stringed guitar-ukuleles or guitaleles are tuned similarly to a guitar and in terms of size are somewhere in between both instruments.
Ukuleles are suitable for players of all ages and are not just Musical Instruments For Children. Be sure to check out our full range of ukuleles and accessories.
