Don’t lose the tuning key!,
I received this harp many years ago as a gift for Christmas. I loved it then, and had many happy hours learning how to play the different songs that are provided,
It is very easy to learn for children and once you have the basics of “tune” a child naturally starts to play music by memory and adapt other songs to the melodious harp on their own. You can also buy extra songs of different categories (Christmas, Christian, Folk, etc.)
The only caveat I see with this lap harp – is unfortunately a very problematic one. The strings on the harp are looped, and so two notes share one string (see picture) – Making it very difficult to keep the harp in tune for long
EX: Tightening one side can change the other, and thereby changing both notes. Only a few years into having it as a child, I lost the “tuning key” and was completely unable to tune it thereafter. [A wrench, pliars, etc strip the small studs]
I found my harp again in pristine condition from whence it was packed all these years, and it is still horribly out of tune. I will have to buy a tuning key from a music store – after a second try with pliers stripped the pegs yet again. Different tuning keys for different harps – so here’s hoping!
I recommend the harp if you can KEEP your tuning key, or are adept at keeping it in tune easily. It is a wonderful learning tool, and fun musical instrument that is different than most.

This is not an autoharp, it’s a zither,
An autoharp is something with keys you press to create chords while you strum a number of strings, like early country music star Maybelle Carter of the Carter Family used for years. This is not one of those. This item is a zither, on which you pluck one string at a time to produce one note. There IS a difference.
Having said that, I bought one of these a few years ago and found it very easy to use, thanks to the music sheets you can slide beneath the strings so you can see which strings to pluck. It’s important to keep it in tune (it can get out of tune over use and/or time), but it’s pleasant enough to listen to.
If you’re just starting out to play music on a string instrument and find the guitar a little daunting, this isn’t a bad way to begin learning. Just make sure you’re getting one at the right price, and DON’T expect to play chords on it…it’s not built for that.

good music fun!,
My 7-year old son got this for Christmas, but it’s fun for everyone in the family. He played with it quite a bit right away, but then he tightened a string a little too much and it broke. There is extra string (actually wire) included, so I was able to fix it without too much difficulty. But there’s probably only enough string to do that one more time. Maybe it is simple to find at the hardware store, I don’t know. That is the only problem we’ve had. I would still buy it again, we’ve really liked it.
