Whether you a teacher singing to your students, a parent playing for your kids or teaching a child to play the ukulele. These kid songs for ukulele all have two great qualities: they are easy to play and they are familiar.
Why the Ukulele is Perfect for Kid Songs
The higher range of the ukulele, the nylon strings makes the ukulele perfect for your favorite kid songs. Also, let’s face it, the diminutive size of the instrument makes it cute.
The ukulele is also one of the easiest chord instruments to play. The C chord only needs one finger, same with the C7 and A minor. The F major chord only requires two fingers. Rounding out the key of C, you will need three fingers to play G or G7, but still – these few chords can cover a lot of songs!
