How does a santoor produce sound?
The player sits cross-legged and puts the instrument on his lap. It is played with two heavy wooden drumsticks. On the long sides on top of the instrument 15 wooden bridges each, that are stringed with 2 or 3 strings, are positioned opposite each other. The strings are struck towards the middle part of the instrument. Thus 30 notes with 60 or 90 strings respectively are available. The strings are stringed on the sides of the instrument on metal pins and can be turned by a tuning key. A usual tuning is a diatonic scale on the right row of bridges. The left row then complements the semitones that are missing in the diatonic scale. In order to receive particularly full and resonant sounds, the whole instrument can alternatively be tuned to the pentatonic scale.

What are pedals used for on harps?
A harp is a stringed instrument which has its strings anchored in the soundboard. Each string is tuned to a different note of the scale, somewhat like a piano. Unlike the piano, however, most harps have only seven strings in each octave. That would limit the harp to only one key (without retuning), if it did not have a mechanism to independently change the length of the strings. Pedal harps have metal pins mounted on rotating disks, which grab the string at the right points to shorten the vibrating length of each string, raising the pitch by one or two semitones. The disks are rotated by a system of rods connected to the pedals in the base of the harp, so that the player can change key or play accidentals (sharps and flats) on the fly.
Is it ok for kids to share a woodwind instrument?
If the kid plays a woodwind instrument that requires a mouthpiece, then the player tends to spit while playing, so the kids could pass their spit to the next person. You could use your own mouth piece and the same instrument. Or if the kid is sick, then he/she could pass their germs to the other person.
