Hi Everyone,
Firstly I hope no one minds me posting about this here. My husband and I run an online music shop (www.creativemusicproducts.co.nz) and are looking at expanding. We've had several people say to us at various times that it is difficult to find good quality or 'real' instruments for young children (as opposed to plastic 'toy' instruments). If anyone feels inclined, I'd love it if you could answer a few questions so I know whether this might be a viable off-shoot for our business... 1) Would you buy instruments for your child? If so, what sort of thing would you buy - recorder, tambourine, kazoo, drum etc. 2) Would you buy from an online shop or try to find the product in a 'real' shop? 3) What other musical products would you buy - CDs, DVDs, musical merchandise? Thanks! And again, I hope no one takes offence to me posting this here. Have a wonderful sunny day

Hi. My kids love music but I would be more inclined to buy instruments for other people's kids! hehe. I like the idea of instruments that aren't plastic - we have two rough and tumble boys who are inclined to break things and plastis usually doesn't last too long in our house. Drums are always good - not too sure about recorders and such at my kids age just cause they would just blow full bore - not too good on the ear drums. Online stores don't bother me - I love shopping in real life and online but find online more convenient nowadays as i can shop sans-children.
CDs and DVDs we often buy. not too sure about musical merchandise as such. |
