Hal LeonardGuitar for Kids Songbook - Hal Leonard Guitar Method (Book/Online Audio)
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A song collection for kids working through the Hal Leonard Guitar Method, with online audio. A supplement, not a standalone course.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Kids partway into a beginner guitar method who want songs
- Parents adding fun material between lesson assignments
- Teachers needing simple repertoire for young students
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Absolute beginners with no method book to work from
- Teens or adults who will find the song choices childish
- Players wanting tab-heavy rock or metal material
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Hal Leonard Guitar Method series
Sequenced to match that method's progression, so songs line up with what the student has already covered.
Detail 03
Online audio instead of a CD
Play along from a phone or tablet, and slow tracks down on devices that support it. No disc drive needed.
Detail 04
Aimed at kids
Song selection and pacing are pitched at young players, which shapes the material more than the difficulty does.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No guitar, picks or tuner included.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need the main method book too?
It is built as a companion to the Hal Leonard Guitar Method, so it works best with that book rather than alone.
02How do I get the audio?
The book includes an access code for online audio. No CD is included.
03What age is this for?
It is written for kids. Older beginners will manage the music easily but may not want the song selection.
04Does it work with electric guitar?
Yes. The material is about chords and melodies, so an acoustic or electric both work.
