I'm Teaching A 10 Year Old Kid Options

[erik]

Hey, I have started to teach a 10 year old kid to play guitar. He have only played for a couple of weeks, and I have had one lesson with him so far where I taught him some basic chords and stuff.

Now, I'm not quite sure what to teach him next. Can anybody give me some tips and pointers? =)
I know there was a topic about this a while back, but I couldn't find it..

Btw, he plays electrical guitar, not aucustic.

When I started, my sister taught me the basic chords. I took pictures of her fingerings and memorized the chords. Then when I had practiced the fingerings A LOT (to make actual sounds from them) I started playing my favorite songs. I found tabs that didn't fit with the original versions, but they were easier and kept my motivation high.
If he likes to sing, tell him to sing along with the songs he is playing, that way he will see results faster and become even more motivated. Thats what I did back then at least, and here I am, some 120 billion notes later and still loving it.
