The ukulele is a small guitar-like instrument with 4 strings. It is extremely affordable and it is one of the easiest and most fun instruments to learn! Most people will learn to sing and play several songs within a lesson. As a first instrument, ukuleles teach kids about music and music theory. Through ukulele lessons, a child learns about beat, harmony, melody, rhythm, and tempo. The ukulele also helps children develop eye-hand coordination as well as the independent movement of fingers. If you have a child who wants to eventually learn the guitar or bass, starting with a ukulele often makes the process easier and less frustrating
