I couldn't live without my piano but I also have many keyboards. Having said that, in the really short term, your child can get by with a keyboard. Without a keyboard of any sort, it is difficult as your child's motivation in between lessons will sustain much more when they have an instrument to practise on. Ideally a full-sized electric piano with fully weighted keys is something I'd recommend. It also needs 'touch-sensitivity' (most electric pianos have this) so you can press harder for louder sound and vice-versa for soft. There may not be a lot of different sounds included in the instrument but they really don't hundreds of these - just really one - the piano sound. New, you would be looking at spending about $1000-$1300 for entry level. A real piano is the ultimate but costs money. It's up to the circumstance of each family and cost options. I'm happy to discuss this with individual families as needed and make recommendations.

Unfortunately I do not. All my teaching resources are in my well-equipped home studio and are available as required.

Yes it does as the piano has the range of notes and requires coordination between hands. All instruments are beneficial to learn but the piano provides many options that other instruments do not such as the ability to play chords (multiple notes at the same time).
