My preschoolers are going to love all the fabulous songs, sounds, instruments, and music videos! Let the learning begin! 🎵 ### 5/5 — Incredibly Engaging *2020-08-23* This is a real confidence and self-esteem booster! It is very engaging for children of all ages and grade levels. ### 5/5 — Special needs community Loves this product! *2020-08-11* We love BEAMZ! We have all types of adults of all levels of abilities and EVERYONE feels successful in my music classes when we pull out the BEAMZ unit! The smiles on their faces and how proud they are of themselves that they can control the sound that happens by using their hands is something that money can’t buy. I can’t wait to experiment with the educational bundle! This will add a whole other dimension to my classes! I am a lucky human because I get to help my clients have moments of creativity and fun while making music. I can’t say enough great things about this product! BEAMZ ROCKS! ### 5/5 — Great fun *2020-08-04, version 1.1.13* Really enjoying the new song bundles! ### 5/5 — Digital App is WOW! *2020-08-04* I have used the Beamz with a Windows laptop, which isn’t my first choice. The digital version is A-MAZING! Everything is right there on my phone or iPad! I cannot wait to share with my students! They are going to flip! I’m thinking this could be an awesome virtual tool in our current back to school normal. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Top Inclusive Education Tool *2020-08-01* I love this instrument! So wonderful for bringing people together to have a good time and share successful music making. ### 5/5 — Creative Music Making *2020-07-29* Fun application for creative music making with a wide range of instruments. More interesting to play versus than the music apps that just play loops and electronica sounds. The sound precision of some of the instruments is amazing. ### 5/5 — Fun Music App *2020-07-27* This is a fun app, similar to garage band but you can play along with songs and use different sets of instruments. I also like that you can record the songs you play. I would definitely recommend! ### 5/5 — Ranglin *2020-07-24* Oh my goodness! This is so cool. Its been a while since i used an actual Beamz full size model so new for me to try the digital version! A lot of fun! Makes me wish i had grandkids to share it with! Will definitely have to try some of the downloads! ### 5/5 — Lions and Tigers, and a Whole Lot More *2015-05-25* I'm a music teacher in a center school for students with severe disabilities. I use a lot of technology to provide access to music for my students. It's the thing that they all can enjoy and be successful in. It also is a way to meet so many of their needs. Beamz is a very generous app that provides astecic musical experiences with sophisticated choices. I'm particularly interested in how it will work on a Tobii for a student with Rett Syndrom. I know that eye gaze technology is challenging but with the quality and high appeal this app provides I think it will be a hit. I wish I could add my own sound loops or student created loops to the app's library. That would make it perfect in my eyes. If I could also add my own video loops, well, that would be over the top! ## Frequently asked questions about Beamz ### What is Beamz?
