I wanted an auto-harp sound. I tuned the lowest 5 strings to C,E,G,C,C. (I doubled the top C because it blends with the next chord.) Strings 6-10 A,C,F,A,A. Strings 11-15 G,B,D,D,G. Many songs can be accompanied with the three resulting chords (C chord, F chord, G chord). You play each chord on four of the strings. The doubled notes blend with either adjacent chord, providing a buffer between. The tuning given in the instructions is just a chromatic major scale, so you can only pick out melodies. I was ready to return this, but the chords worked out. Review: Great tool for teaching note-reading - As a piano teacher, I use these zither-type instruments with their slide-in sheet music to teach the students to read music graphically. It's a fun reward at the end of a lesson, or a great frustration-breaker in the middle. I love it that these have nylon strings instead of metal - so much easier to tune. No case, but we keep using the sturdy box with its handle as a case. Tuning wrench and pick included. ## Features - INTRODUCE CHILDREN TO MUSIC: Your little one will love creating their own melodies with the Happy Harp. The musical instrument set includes playing and tuning tips as well as five songs to begin playing, two picks, and a tuning wrench - SKILLS DEVELOPMENT: Develops coordination, motor skills and auditory and creative skills. - ENCOURAGES MUSICALLITY: Teaches kid’s rhythm strumming and other musical techniques while encouraging the learning of basic sounds - FULLY FUNCTIONAL: Perfectly sized for young hands yet fully playable and tuneable.

They are a real, traditional folk instrument, now marketed to children. **Q: does the extra music available for melody harps fit this harp** A: Yes. It is not an absolute 100% perfect fit, but it fits very well, and Missy would have just answered yes. It's that close. Definitely worth the purchase. Our daughter loves it. I only wish the sheets came laminated. We are extremely happy with the purchase. And more importantly our daughter uses it. **Q: Does this come with music?** A: Yes, it does. **Q: I bought this for my granddaughter and she lost the tuner. Where can get a replacement? I have a regular square head lap harp tuner but it doesn't fit** A: I also bought this harp for my granddaughter. I would suggest maybe writing to the Haps Happy Harp Company to see if you could purchase a new tuner from them. Look on the box it came in for their address or phone number or find it on the web maybe Amazon can help. Possibly a music store may have one or could help you order another one. I hope I have helped you some. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You can use this like an auto-harp. *by S***Y on September 23, 2015* I tuned this to chords. I wanted an auto-harp sound.

Could NOT get it to stay tuned for more than 5 minutes! *by H***Y on February 12, 2016* Extrememly disappointing :-( I have kids from 4-10 taking music lessons, and especially for my little ones, I was thinking this would be a fun addition to their musical toys and instruments at home. We got this for Christmas, and it sounded awful -- playing the songs included and they were nearly unrecognizable. But we recognized that it just desperately needed a tuning, and since I don't have an ear for it, we asked our piano and music teachers to take a look at it. They both tried tuning it -- could get it perfectly tuned, and within 5-10 minutes it sounded AWFUL again. Our poor piano teacher tried and tried and tried -- one afternoon she tuned it no less than 15 times, and she was shocked how she could tune it, get it sounding great, set it down and come back five minutes later and it was totally out of tune again. She said she'd never seen anything like this. I feel bad both music teachers invested so much of their time into trying to get it to work for my kids, I think they were both just excited about it like we were, and were so disappointed that they couldn't come up with a way for it to even be usable for them. I would've loved to return it, but sadly (and this was our own fault), by the time we realized how hopeless this harp was, we'd already thrown out all the boxes and paperwork with the Christmas boxes. :-( I was just really disappointed, because I thought I was getting something higher quality than this, not just some $10 plaything that I shouldn't expect anything of . . . the kids are disappointed that no matter how hard they try or practice, they can't play a song that sounds good at all. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hape Happy Harp Kid's Musical Instrument | Award Winning Wooden Lap Harp Toy for Kids, Tuning Tips, Tuning Wrench, Picks and Song Sheets Included - World of Harmony Music; Child's Play ~ A Beginner's Collection of 28 Favorite Childhood Songs for Zither, Lap Harp - World of Harmony Music; Wishing You a Merry Christmas ~ Christmas Music Book for Zither, Yerbonitsa, Lap Harp, Plucked Psaltery, Cymbala --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/6880334-happy-harp-kids-musical-instrument-award-winning-wooden-lap-harp](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/6880334-happy-harp-kids-musical-instrument-award-winning-wooden-lap-harp) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-05*
