Why use stickers for teaching ukulele?
Learning to play the ukulele requires a lot of mental skill and fine motor skills. Often, elementary aged children mental abilities are greater than their fine motor abilities when learning to play a string instrument. This can lead to a lot of frustration when a child knows what to do but is unable to accomplish it.
Colored dot stickers provide something concrete for the students to use when learning chord shapes. After using the colored dots for a few weeks, the children’s muscle memories will take over and they can use these chord shapes without the dots and/or apply them to other chords.
In addition, the colors provide an easy visual cue for changing chords within a song.

These were great at first but very quickly started falling off of the ukuleles. They don’t last very long.

Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear that and haven’t heard that feedback before! Of course, many factors could be at play (finish on uke, humidity, etc.) but just in case I’d be happy to send a replaceable set. Due to wear and tear (and kids being kids) I found the dots to last about 2 years at my school before needing to be replaced. Let us know what else we can do to help!

I bought a set of these for the ukulele that I had already purchased for my niece to make it easier for her to learn to play. I’ve never played an instrument before but I set it up myself and played every song in the book – it was so fun and easy!

Awesome! I LOVE playing ukulele and needed dots myself when I first learned! 🙂

I love them! It’s the best method for my students to learn uke. Thank you for also providing these dots.
Pitch Publications –
Thank you so much, Karen!! :). So glad they have been helpful to you and your students!
Joelle –
These really came in handy and gave the kids confidence when learning their first chords! They already had enough to think about when moving their fingers and then adding strumming, so being able to glance down before a chord change and see where your fingers need to go really helped speed up the learning process!
Only request is that you add the navy dots for Am chords too, since the book I use taught Am way before C7.

Hey Joelle! Thanks for the review 🙂 . I hope to have another set of dots available soon!
