Ideas for children focused music businesses

Music businesses that are focused on instructing children can be very lucrative. Music instructors who have instruments available at their location are in demand. Especially for those instruments that are either heavy, large or loud. Having the child student come to our location is a great time saver since we will not be hampered by the issues of travel. An additional source of income can be to sell the actual musical instruments that we offer to instruct.

A great idea for instruments for a children focused music business is percussion instruments. Many children are drawn to percussion and parents are looking for instructors who can offer lessons outside the home. Here are some great sets that are reduced in size for child players.

Kalos 8-Inch Cutaway Wooden Tambourine

An additional percussion piece that kids love is a tambourine.  This eight inch Kalos tambourine has five pairs of jingles. The construction is wood and the skin of this tambourine is a synthetic blend. With this small size, having several of these on hand will work, especially if we teach more than one child at a time.
