The tween years are a time when your child isn’t a little kid anymore but hasn’t quite reached the maturity level of a teenager. They are starting to spread their wings, but still need a safe place to land, snug at home with you. Whether they are interested in music, like to hit the slopes, or enjoy building things, these gifts are sure to put a smile on their face, give them something to be excited about, and provide an opportunity for you to spend time together!

Is your tween musically inclined? This electric piano makes a perfect gift for a beginning musician.

The package comes with everything your young musician needs to get started, including a keyboard, a music stand, an adjustable piano stand, a piano bench, and a microphone. This keyboard offers 500 tones and 300 rhythms and is sure to please any music buff!
