How many octaves should I make?

Q. I want to learn how to play the piano (I know Twinkle Twinkle Little Star with no chords, because we had to do it in our Music class last year), but our upright piano at home is broken. I want to make a dummy keyboard (out of simple illustration board/cardboard, if there is), but how many octaves should I make? We made one last year, but that's only one octave. What do you guys suggest?

A. 4 octaves should cover most songs you will ever want to play but two at the very least

What is the best way to go about teaching a 7 year old to play piano?
Q. Im thirteen years old and I can play piano. It's a skill of mine that I admire and embrace and I would like my 7 year old brother to enjoy it also. I know how to play every chord and understand sheet music. I was wondering; how would you go about teaching a 7 year old to play piano?

Thanks!

A. try having himrepeat simple rhthyms. twinkle twinkle little star, mary had a little lamb, nursery rhymes and such. print outs with piano notes on them are good, hecan study the notes. oh, and make sure you teach him on a REAL piano, not a keyboard, unless you want him playing keyboard for the rest of his life. even weighted keyboards are crap.
