M-EDGE SuperStylus. Not an app, but a superb stylus for small hands, or hands with low muscle tone, to hold. Chunky, with good weight towards the tip and a soft grip. This can make touching the iPad screen much easier for students. Available in blue and pink. $23.98 at Amazon, also available at Staples stores for $19.99, but I don't see it on their web store yet. Shoulder Pain Relief, Neck And Shoulder Pain, Low Muscle Tone, Bamboo Pillow, Contour Pillow, Memory Foam Pillow, Cbt, Odor, Edges

ISYNTHESIZER. Not the most glamorous or feature-filled synthesizer in the iTunes store, but maybe its simplicity is why it works so well for Special Needs students. Kids enjoy the sounds and can really get a lot from the different presets and altering the parameters. #ipadmusicapps - $2.99 Special Needs Students, Synthesizer, App Store, Simplicity, Feature

DRUM-O-RAMA HD. Sadly unknown gem of an app. In Drum-O-Rama you can create your own tabletop of percussion instruments, using different samples. Totally customizable with color, shape, size for each sound. All layouts can be saved, so you can create different set-ups for each student. Total no-brainer for including Special Needs children in class ensembles. #ipadmusicapps ~ $1.99 Music Ed, Music Class, Percussion Instruments, Special Needs Kids, Ipads, Rama

MUSICAL AUTOHARP. Very well made autoharp app. Autoharps are great for including Special Needs students in Guitar Class, though the weight and size of the actual instrument can be difficult. This app is easy to play and sounds wonderful. Much easier to tune than a real autoharp as well! #ipadmusicapps ~ $0.99 Guitar Classes, Dulcimer, Music Stuff, Tune

ECHO STRING. Probably the best of the many harp/autoharp apps available. You can create up to seven partitions of diatonic chords, including sevenths. You can record performances in the app and play them back, even at double speed - so cool for kids to see. Free version allows three chords at once, full version includes MIDI export. #ipadmusicapps ~ $3.99 Great Apps, Harp
