Hi Everyone,
This year we have put our boys in music school hoping they will be able to find an instrument they would like to play and continue on. The school currently has a school band and they will be offered to year 3 students onwards so we want to give them a taste of what some instruments to see what they like best. First, they tried the drums for a term but decided it wasn't something they were passionate about, and this term we moved them to do keys. We opted for a shared lesson with the two of them as it is the same price as a class of 10 and surprisingly both boys are doing very well.
Originally, we have a keyboard that is around 8 years old which we bought before we had the kids. It's doing an acceptable job but the only downside is it needs to be connected to a computer for it to play sound. Also, there are limited functions so we decided to get a new keyboard for the boys since they are both pretty interested after learning a few songs already.
We chose a Yamaha keyboard which is enough for both our boys for some time. At just over $300, the price was pretty good considering the ones on Amazon were selling for much more. The box came with the keyboard, the book stand, and a power adaptor. It was very easy to easy and in a few minutes, everything was set up. The features on this keyboard definitely were much better than our old one and the kids loved the recording function so they could hear what they played.
I hope we can find a musical instrument they love. I missed out on learning music when I was young as money was tight at home so we are now hoping we can give this opportunity to our kids. Not sure if they will continue on for many years to come but at least we have tried and so far after 2 months, they are doing very well and is willing to practice every 2 days as asked by the teacher.

This keyboard looks so good for learning and m sure it will really help because using a good keyboard while learning is a major factor to boost the learning
Hopefully they will continue on learning :)
Yes sure
Yahama keyboard seem to be a very good keyboard, i was playing earlier as i was growing up but stopped due to other activities that took my time.
I'm sure you like keyboard at least or one can go to guitar or saxophone. I love those instruments too.

Yahama keyboard has been in existence for long... I was leaning with it too
Yep I have a yahama too when I was at school (tho i still don't know how to play properly lol)
Is that keyboard a full-size one?
Oh, they would love it!!! And if they don't, you can play it, hehehe!
I get a lot of joy playing different musical instruments!
!LADY @travelgirl !
No, its slightly smaller than the full one as they are beginners plus we don't have loads of space at home. Once they progress and be more comfortable, we will look into getting a full size one :D
Be prepared!!! If they like it, they'd e tinkering with the keys forever, hahaha!
