Sound Wand Harp - A Magical Motion-Based Musical Instrument

What it is: an app turning the iPhone or iPad into a virtual harp.

What you do with it: play music by tapping on the screen (different areas generate single notes or harmonies) and waving the device at the some time for additional effects.

What we liked: the concept, great quality sounds, ease of use (you don't need to have any musical background to play and have fun with it). Many configuration options (e.g. predefined choices of key/scale).

What we didn't like: works only on newer iOS devices. Make sure that the kids hold the device firmly while waving (playing).

Botom line: an excellent app for making kids interact with music in a creative, non-stressful way.
