ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Harp

A harp is like a big musical instrument that looks like a giant triangle. It has a lot of strings that go up and down, and they make sounds when you pluck them with your fingers. Imagine a guitar that is really, really big and has lots and lots of strings.

To play a harp, you sit down and hold the harp with your legs. You use your hands and fingers to reach up and down the strings, making beautiful music. Some harps have pedals at the bottom that you can push with your feet to change the sound the strings make.

Harp music is often very pretty and soothing, and it can make you feel really happy inside. In fact, many people use harp music to help them relax and feel calm. It's a magical sound that can make you feel like you're in a magical place, far away from all the problems of the world!
