What to look for while buying a musical keyboard for your child?

Introducing your child to music at an early age is a good idea and selecting the musical keyboard is the best choice. A good understanding of music will add a fun element and boost his brainpower as well. A beginner keyboard is a great way to introduce piano playing to your child without investing much for a full-size piano. It will provide an authentic playing experience and develop his interest in music in the long run.

Let us focus on the main elements to look for while buying the musical keyboard for your child.

Simple, useful and decent functional keyboard

An overly complicated keyboard with tons of functions is a bad buy, to begin with for your child. It may distract the child from the actual musical side of keyboard playing and ultimately leave them confused. You just need to focus on the keyboard with decent functionality like touch sensitivity, a metronome, nice reverb, good drum sounds and a selection of quality ‘voices’ such as strings, bass, woodwind, etc. Select a keyboard with a limited set of usable and useful functions, neither too many nor too few for your child to try his fingers upon.

Built-in lessons and method books

Select keyboards that come with built-in lessons that are easy to follow. Some of them are often accompanied by method books. This will help you to learn to play the keyboard together without a teacher in the beginning stages. After having to try his hands on this, he will build up some confidence and be ready for a teacher.

Sound Quality

Good sound quality plays a very important role in any musical instrument. A rich and good quality sound will motivate and inspire the kids. On the other hand, a low-quality sound might demotivate them.

Additional Features

The other features to look out for includes the number of keys. A 61 key keyboard is good enough for your child to play a thousand songs with it. Another thing to consider is the touch sensitivity, the total weight and its integration with other devices. Look out for other accessories such as headphones, the stand, stool or the chair to adjust the height of the keyboard or the seat. Do check for the adaptor or the battery power.

After having considered the above points, buy the best musical keyboard from a good online music store in the Philippines for your child.
