Oakland has always been interested in music from an early age. He got his first guitar at 2 and then learned to play the piano in Kindergarten. Music education is an important cornerstone to academic, social and cultural success! Did you know that Guitar Center is one of the largest independent music educators in the U.S?
After he started learning to play the piano he asked for a keyboard. After he got his keyboard he asked for a guitar. He’s very much interested in learning to play instruments, especially his voice. He wants to be a country singer one day!
Oakland received 4 lessons at Guitar Center and loved going every week! He learned different chords each week and really had to focus for those 30 minutes and listen to what the instructor was teaching him.
After his last lesson his dad bought him his first real guitar! He had a toddler wooden guitar but never a real one.
Look at this Christmas special!

I think giving the gift of music lessons would be an amazing gift for Christmas or any special occasion! I also believe all children should learn to express themselves through song or instrument at some point in their life.
This is so great, music is good for the soul.
I think music is such a wonderful gift to give children. I love gifts that are more about experiences rather than things.
