Fisher-Price I Can Play Guitar

From , former About.com Guide

I Can Play Guitar :
I Can Play Guitar is a plug and play musical instrument which aims to teach kids the basics of guitar playing. The I Can Play Guitar plugs into the TV's A/V jack. The inbuilt software displays the song and color coded sequence on the TV screen. Kids have to follow along and try to match the sequence shown on the screen with the color coded buttons on the guitar frets. The I Can Play Guitar is meant for kid-sized hands and it features abbreviated strings which make it easier for little hands to manipulate them.
I Can Play Guitar vs I Can Play Piano:
The I Can Play Guitar model is very similar to I Can Play Piano also by Fisher-Price. The I Can Play Piano displays the piano keyboard on the TV screen, and highlights the color coded key/s that have to be pressed in a continuous sequence. Points are awarded based on how many keys are correctly pressed. The I Can Play Guitar has points awarded based on the skill levels you move through.
I Can Play Guitar - What's Cool:
I think the I Can Play Guitar is pretty cool! It's a great way for kids to develop an interest in a musical instrument. Kids will enjoy following the easy to learn instructions on the TV screen. Once your child has mastered the various skill levels on the I Can Play Guitar, tackling a real guitar will be much easier.
I Can Play Guitar - How Much:
The I Can Play Guitar retails for an MSRP of $99. It's a little pricey, but it does offer a lot of functionality. If your child wants to try out his guitar playing skills, the I Can Play Guitar is a great starting point.
