This thread is a good idea. 3 neighborhood kids (10-13 yrs old) have decided to play the guitar during this time. I've worked with the parents to get them into decent guitars and the kids have been asking me questions about different things. I've thought about offering to have a group session with them, just to see where they are. Then maybe work one-on-one with them if they want. One kid plays the violin in middle school and when I showed him that the violin and mandolin were tuned the same, and then the mandolin is just the 4 strings of the guitar, flipped upside down, his eyes lit up. It was like I could see his mind working. Really cool to see that excitement.
My main advice to beginnings, and I know the OP is beyond this, but it is in dealing with switching between chords. Don't worry about fretting each note exactly as you change chords. Keep your strumming pattern consistent. Hell, most of the time, progressively changing the notes from one chord to the other sounds cool AF anyway.
