Sometimes they are packed up by the children and their parents. Usually this will become a family affair with all siblings chipping in. It sets a good example for future class coordination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To prepare the family immediately after the first lesson, a keyboard or piano is necessary at home. For the benefits of what was delivered in the first class to take full effect, the instrument should be placed in a communal area that is comfortable, well lit and where the child feels happiest playing. With a safe and happy environment comes solid learning, and the enjoyment of practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to look for in your package when purchasing a Keyboard for home<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A portable keyboard (<strong>not a mini keyboard<\/strong>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Casio or Yamaha keyboards are what I recommend you purchase. The new Yamaha 2024 model: <a href=\"https:\/\/au.yamaha.com\/en\/products\/musical_instruments\/keyboards\/portable_keyboards\/psr-e383\/index.html\">PSR-E 383 keyboard <\/a>is the newer model that will be played in class.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At least 61 (or 5 octaves) of full-sized keys.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Touch sensitive keys are preferred. I have found keyboards without weight or sensitivity can be more appealing to some small children, however with much teaching experience I see that it is best to start with an instrument that has the option for the student to play expressively. It is important to note that nothing feels like a piano than a piano itself, and all pianos have a different touch or feel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extra sounds and rhythms are always great fun for musical children. These are fabulous to engage the budding young musician and inspire them to compose. This is a strong positive for healthy creativeness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The keyboard should have a power adaptor and battery powered option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The keyboard should have a music stand for their music books to sit on securely.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A keyboard stand for the keyboard to sit on.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A keyboard stool is best and must be comfortable to sit on at the correct height.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Places in Albury Wodonga to purchase your full keyboard kit (keyboard, stand &amp;&nbsp;stool)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/All-Music-244701052211500\/\">All Music<\/a> Albury 608 Dean St Albury (02) 6041 1765<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/megasmusic\/\">Megas Music<\/a> High St, Wodonga Store (02) 6056 1044<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shop online<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Buy second hand<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Musikeys classes at Musikids, keyboards are supplied.
