My little boy, the musician...


Collin has really been having a growth and learning spurt these last couple of weeks. He is learning words at such at amazing rate that I'm sure he'll be using simple sentences before the blink of an eye.
I've been singing to him since before he was born and here lately we've been working on our ABC's. He can get to about F before the song starts to fade into little more than gibberish, but he knows the tune and struts around the house singing his own rendition.

For his birthday my sister in law sent him this little beginner musical instrument set which came with a tambourine/drum, a harmonica, some marackas, a hollow wooden percussion fish (when you hit it with the little stick it sounds like horses clopping down the street) and last but not least a Kazoo.
Tonight was the first night we got the Kazoo out and once I showed him how to use it, he was ALL about the Kazoo. And what did he play on his Kazoo? The ABC song of course! LOL. He may not know the alphabet, but he knows the music!

  • I love this time!!! So glad you're not one of those parents who get ticked when people give their kids "loud" toys. It's part of a childhood ritual!

    We call it GOOD NOISE in my house. Buddha has a golf club he uses to BANG on the hardwood floors. Granted the club is wood...but it's solid wood. Call me crazy, but that's some good noise!

    Keep us updated on the musician in your home!
