Is this clarinet good for a 8 year old?

I'm afraid not. It is no solid, easily brealable, and will teach bad habits, spend a bit more on a used student model from local store. Good luck

I would say no, my 8 yr old is very responsible but accidents happen, she dropped it and it bent to a point it could no longer be used. I ended up having to rent one through a local music store. So it was a waste of money.

Yes its excellent for an 8 year old. I bought it for my daughter and although she was 11 she was also a beginner. Her band teacher said it was perfect. So yes its good for an 8 year old.

I would guess this would be just right for a beginner. My 13 year old daughter does just fine with it. I would suggest going to a local music store to purchase different reeds, however. The reeds that come with it are not great, and sometimes don't work well.

I don't think so. My daughter is also 8 and this is still a perfect size easel for her. The primary colors of the trays and the clips may make it seem slightly more "kiddie", but it's very sturdy and tall enough. I still paint/draw with my daughter on it :-). It's also survived a couple of moves. Hope that helps!

this is for 5-12 year olds so yes its fine for an 8 year old but anyone concerned too I would go with the teen/adult one which is similar. on their website here. http://www.microkickboard.com/young-adult-teen-scooters/3-wheeled

This is a great beginning guitar, but I think it would be to heavy to be comfortable for an 8 year old. http://www.firstguitar.com/electric-mini.htmlI think it is as important to learn on a quality guitar. The fender squire might be a better option, as it may be less unwieldy. Shop amps, as a guitar is often only as good as an amp lets it be :)

It is for kids ages 8 and up. But I think younger kids could use it as well.

A 30" guitar will do fine for an 8 year old. Most guitars are 38 to 42", so this size should be fine. You might also look at the Cordoba C-1 1/4 size, although it's quite a bit more expensive. This would probably make a decent starter guitar (ie cheap but useable for at least a year or two).

I bought mine for a 9 year old (her Birthday) and she loves it! I think an 8 year old would too.

A five year old could "use" it but it would depend on the child as to whether they could Play it or not. I would say 7-9 is probably a good age to introduce a child to this if they had no musical background. Saying that, it is an instrument you could purchase/acquire and play with around them and they may be able to pick it up at a much earlier age. Well built, but not a "toy".

I think it would be fine for a typical 8 year old, as long as some presets are made with the lenses. Some of the controls are quite delicate, so training would be required.

Well I am not really sure. It's an ok clarinet. Sometimes it can be a little hard to play. But I think it may have to do with the mouthpiece and reed choice is a big factor. I found that the lower down I moved my ligature the easier it was to play. I hope this answers your question.

It would be perfect for an 8 year old. Four is about as young as I would start if you wanted the child to work it herself. The adults hve enjoyed it also. I would buy this again and it has held up really well. Hope this helps.

According to the website it is a Bb clarinet. We did not know of a warranty option but some sellers offer them for a price. So far we have been very happy with the instrument and it is rated as a good student model.

My son needed it for his music class. He is in the fifth grade. I think, personally, it could be used by a child younger than that and up to adult, as long as they were interested on learning to play an Instrument.

I am using it for my 6 years old boy with out any problem. Very convenient to sit and write and also safe. For 8 years old may be little small but it depends on how tall is your girl. Sometimes I also use it for writing some quick notes :)

I would not recommend this one for that level of playing. My son is using it as a beginner in his middle school. I think it's a fair instrument for beginner level learning. I'm not a musician though. The piece is very light and easily damaged.
