Ukulele is a small guitar shape instrument but with only 4 strings. It produce a happy and warm sound when strummed. Good for playing and sing along. Popularly associated with Hawaiian culture and songs.
You can of course play any songs with the ukulele (or uke). The small size also make it convenient to bring along and played during outdoor activities like camping.
