[For Kids] Play Piano with One Finger! Recommended Songs Collection

Playing the piano is demanding and difficult—you’re asked to use both hands and your feet on the pedals, which gets pretty complex.

But that’s only because such instructions are written in the sheet music.

It’s perfectly fine to play the piano with one hand, or even with a single finger! One of the piano’s advantages is that even just playing the melody with one finger lets you enjoy a bit of the piece’s charm.

In this article, we introduce recommended songs that “can be played with one finger,” aimed at young children so they can start by simply having fun with the piano.

Of course, adults who want to give the piano a try are welcome to use this as a guide as well.

And if you have some piano experience, it can be great fun for parent and child to play a duet—have your child play the melody while you provide the accompaniment!
