You should look around for some fun songs for kids that you can play and the kids can sing/dance along. My Story: my kid is 14 and played better after 2 months worth of lessons than I did after two years. Now I buy nice guitars and make him play them for me. It is really nice to have a guitar player in the family. Sweet story.

Their granddaughter, now four years old, is awed by my guitar playing. No, I'm no virtuoso! She gingerly approaches when I play acoustic at my sister's place; then watches intently, quietly, until her attention is taken away. I see in her the same fascination we all feel in differing degrees with music. Somehow it is ingrained in our souls, and we react instinctively. I know this from her and other very young kids I have watched react to the music when I play for them. I am amazed by the reactions they show--for I feel it too. It is powerful, and one of the best--innocent-- ways of expressing oneself I have ever found. I have no kids, but my sister and hubby now have two grandkids.
