Best Kids' Guitars & Strings of 2025

“I picked this up on a whim for my 2-year-old. After seeing a teacher with a ukulele, I thought it would spark their interest. The child's excitement was priceless as they strummed and sang, even if they weren't playing specific notes. I struggled a bit with tuning, but it seems tunable enough. Overall, it’s the perfect safe instrument for young kids, and I’ve considered buying more as gifts.”

“I bought this for my rough-and-tumble 2-year-old, and I'm pleased with its durability. It has lasted longer than expected, allowing him to play on and off throughout the day. For kids who love music, this is a fantastic choice.”

“I got the Raimy Kids Ukulele for my child, and it's been wonderful! The size is ideal for little hands, and the quality is impressive for the price. It’s held up well against my kid's energetic playing. I highly recommend it for introducing music to children!”

"I got this for my daughter’s 6th birthday. She loves that she can sing along with the microphone. The bottom of the stand isn't as sturdy as I'd like, but it works okay once placed in the holder."

"My son was so excited to receive this electric guitar, microphone, and speaker for Christmas. I was initially worried it might be too loud, but it's actually not too loud at all, which is great for indoors. Plus, with the volume controls, it's manageable. I did have a small issue—the microphone clip was missing—but the seller promptly sent a replacement clip and even a spare microphone. Excellent service!"

"I ordered this for a dear little girl, and she was SO CAREFUL using it because she wanted to show it to her friends during Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, it only lasted ONE WEEK! I wouldn’t want to disappoint a child by purchasing this."

"I bought this for my 3-year-old grandson. It was just the right size and the quality was good. The sound was even better than I expected, making it worth the price."

"This guitar is a great choice for my 3-year-old toddler. Although it is a bit large for her now, it means she can use it longer. We have other products from this brand and they are all high quality. I would suggest a shoulder strap for younger musicians."

"My 2-year-old grandson plays this guitar every day! It's the perfect size for him, and even after dropping it on a hard surface twice, there’s no scratch or blemish. I'm really glad I chose this instrument!"

"I bought this for my 3-year-old daughter for Christmas, and she's absolutely loved it! It has provided her with tons of fun and seems much more durable than the handmade wooden guitar she had before, which fell apart quickly. So far, it's been a great experience!"

"My grandson had one just like this that broke, and I'm so glad to have found the exact same one! He loves it!"

"I knew this wouldn't play like an expensive mini guitar, but I expected the strings to be somewhat tunable since it has locking keys. While it does make noise and looks great, it’s really just a toy. If you're looking for something functional, you might want to consider other options."

"My son is thrilled with his gift! It fits him perfectly, although I'm a bit cautious about the strap. I plan to supervise him while he plays, but he truly feels like he's playing guitar and hasn't put it down since Christmas morning!"

"I got this for my 4-year-old grandson, and he absolutely loves it! It has real strings and plays fantastic rock beats. I couldn't be happier with the quality and price."

"I purchased this for my seven-year-old's Halloween costume, and she adores it! The quality exceeded my expectations, and it even has built-in sounds so she can pretend to play it. It was the perfect touch for her costume!"

"I bought this ukulele for my daughter because I play one for her at bedtime. It's a good beginner instrument for young children, especially for the price! The paint job was mostly good, but I did receive a used one initially. Tuning takes time, but with some patience, I was able to play songs on it."

"Our daughter has been obsessed with this ukulele since we got it. It's perfect for her tiny hands and she loves pretending to be a guitarist. However, I noticed one of the strings came off recently, and I suspect the others might too since they seem glued. Despite that, she’s had a lot of fun with it!"

"This little ukulele has added so much joy to our home! It's tunable and has a nice sound once you give it time to settle. My son has been gentle with it, and it has held up well, but I did hear about some other kids breaking theirs. Overall, a great purchase!"

"This is the cutest little guitar for my daughter. I got it for her 3rd birthday, and it's almost the perfect size. She can use it for a few more years. It's durable and really perfect for what we wanted. Totally worth it!"

"My 3-year-old loves this guitar! It has held up really well compared to other toys like it. Even after a while, it still feels like new. She plays with it every day! It's very cute and well made!"

"I gave this as a birthday gift, and the birthday girl was thrilled. She especially loved the artwork, saying, 'OMG that’s so beautiful!'"

"I purchased this for my toddler who adores my bass guitar. He absolutely loves it and plays with it constantly. I deducted one star because, despite being a budget-friendly toy, the tuning pegs don’t work well. You can only turn them so much before they get stuck. Pros: cheap, light, great size for toddlers. Cons: tuning pegs could be better. It would be nice to include extra strings since kids will likely break them."

"I got this little guitar to keep my toddler from playing with my nice ukulele. While it’s durable, it hardly produces any sound and doesn’t stay in tune. At least it can handle rough play!"

"I got this for my 2.5-year-old and he loves it! He carries it everywhere and won’t stop playing. The ability to tighten the strings as needed is a great feature. Highly recommended!"

"My granddaughter absolutely loves this Ukulele! The size is just right for her to hold and play, and the sound quality exceeded my expectations."

"I wanted to find a budget-friendly option for my 2-year-old, and this seemed perfect. She enjoys pretending to play along when her uncle and papa strum their guitars."

"I was really excited to give this to my godson. The size is perfect for a two-year-old, and he has been playing with it non-stop since he opened the box."

"I absolutely love this guitar! It plays well, even if it’s just a toy. The design is beautiful and very vibrant!"

"My daughter adores this guitar! However, it didn’t come with the booklet mentioned in the description. It could really use a strap; I tried a standard one, but it didn’t fit."

"Great size for my 6-year-old! It’s durable and has a great paint job. Some strings are metal, while a couple are plastic, which are a bit cheap, but we just replaced them. Overall, a great purchase!"
