The Hal Leonard Ukulele Method: Ukulele for Kids

Ukulele for Kids is a fun, easy course that teaches children to play Ukulele faster than ever before. Popular songs such as Yellow Submarine, The Hokey Pokey, This Land Is Your Land, Rock Around the Clock, You Are My Sunshine and Barbara Ann keep kids motivated, and the clean, simple page layouts ensure their attention remains focused on one concept at a time.

The method can be used in combination with a teacher or parent. The accompanying CD contains tracks for demonstration and play-along. Lessons include: selecting your Uke; parts of the Uke; holding the Uke; hand position; reading music notation and counting; notes on the strings; C, F, C7, Am, G, B-flat, and Gm chords; strumming and picking; and more!
