Children’s Songs

There are lots of fun songs you can play for little kids on the guitar, and most are pretty simple.  Keep in mind most small children struggle playing guitar till about the age of 9 or 10, due to the strength and coordination needed, but adults can have fun playing these songs for their little children! These songs are usually pretty simple, and I use many of these to teach people at the very beginning level, because everyone knows them, and believe it or not, they help develop some good techniques!   So, if I am playing a song  really slow for the TRUE beginners,  you can usually skip to the end of each video to see me play it much faster.  So if you are NOT a beginner and want to go faster, just skip to the end, or just print the lyrics and chords.  The intermediate level songs in this section are really fun to play! (Rainbow Connection is still one of my favorites!)
