Guitars are a great choice of instrument for children since they can support the development of coordination, musicality and memory. They are also extremely fun to play, which is why we love using them in our award-winning music Holiday Camps!

But what happens when your child’s guitar starts to become out of tune? Read on to see our top 5 free guitar tuning apps that will keep their instrument sounding pitch-perfect!
