To answer your question: yes, they do make smaller guitars, both electric and acoustic. Acoustic ones you can find anywhere (even from Target) and electric ones you can get from any guitar store (like Guitar Center, etc...)

I'm with Celesta. I'd just let them do what they like and address any issues as they arise, meaning lessons or playing instruments at home. Odds are that one will get tired of it sooner than the other, leaving one child to "shine" at that instrument.

We have a bunch of instruments in our house (pianos, drum sets, guitars) and the kids have - on their own - picked which instruments they like best. While Alison picked the drums, the other girls play with them all the time. It doesn't bother Alison one bit.
