Learn about guitars, their six strings, and how musicians play them, specifically designed for 4-year-olds to understand.
A guitar is a musical instrument that has six strings. Think of strings like the lines on your drawing paper, but these strings can make music when you touch them!
When a musician wants to play the guitar, they use one hand to pick or strum the strings. This is like when you clap your hands to make noise!
With their other hand, they press down on the strings on the neck of the guitar. Imagine you are pushing down on a toy to make it work. This helps to change the sound of the music. Together, these two hands make beautiful music that we can listen to!
