Accordion for Kids

At Starland Music Learning Center the other day, our son saw a kid's-size accordion.  He urged us to get it and immediately started playing it in the car.  He hasn't really wanted to stop since.  He is practicing songs that he originally learned on the violin, and also exploring chords.

The accordion itself is from Hohner Kids (www.hohnerkids.com).  It seems very sturdy and has easy-to-reach buttons.  The box says it is a "toy accordion," perhaps because it is plastic and has only one octave of buttons, but from our perspective it really is an instrument and not simply a toy!
