OC GUITARS: David's Guitar, Ukulele, and Bass Lessons

Learn Guitar or Ukulele and More!

Summer break is the perfect time for kids to explore new hobbies, build confidence, and stay mentally active—and what better way than learning a musical instrument like the guitar, ukulele or bass?

These portable, fun, and beginner-friendly instruments are ideal for kids of all ages. Whether your child dreams of becoming a rock star or just wants a creative outlet, music lessons can spark a lifelong love for learning and self-expression.

Here are some fun and enriching summer activities that pair perfectly with picking up a guitar, ukulele, or bass:

🎵 1. Start with a Summer Lesson Series

Sign your child up for weekly guitar, ukulele, or bass lessons. A consistent schedule helps them build momentum while still giving them plenty of time to enjoy summer. Bonus: music lessons help keep those brain muscles working while school’s out!

📖 2. Create a Music Practice Journal

Encourage your child to track their progress and set mini-goals. Have them write down the songs they’re learning, sketch out chord shapes, or reflect on what they liked about each practice session.

Tip: Let them decorate the journal to make it feel personal and creative.

🎶 3. DIY Backyard Concert

Plan a low-pressure, end-of-summer performance for friends and family. This gives kids a fun goal to work toward and boosts confidence in a supportive setting.

Idea: Combine it with a picnic or popsicle party for extra fun!

🎥 4. Start a Summer Song Video Diary

Record short video clips of your child playing each week. They’ll love seeing their progress, and it makes a great keepsake (and share-worthy content for proud parents!).

🎨 5. Instrument Decorating Session

If they have a beginner ukulele, practice guitar or bass, let kids personalize it with removable stickers. This helps them feel more connected to their instrument—and more excited to play.

🌞 6. Join a Summer Music Camp or Group Class

Learning in a group is a great way for kids to socialize and stay motivated. Many music schools (like ours!) offer beginner group lessons during the summer.

 

Music is more than just notes—it’s a way for kids to express themselves, build patience, and stay mentally sharp over the summer. With the right mix of lessons, creativity, and fun, your child can turn summer downtime into a season of growth and joy.
