Revise that.. Alexa will sit still for SOME things!

Some things, like buttons you can push that make sounds and play music! Alexa loves the music table we have at home where she can push buttons and hear songs. So it's no surprise that she loved this toy at daycare that makes sounds too!


Look! It's a football-shaped Oball!


Also today, Alexa went to her first music class at daycare! This is a supplementary activity where Dave the music guy comes and plays songs for the babies. It costs extra, but Alexa loves music and who am I to deprive her of a music class that the other kids get to go to? Oh dear. Slippery slope.

Anyway, here is an e-mail to the parents about the class:

Hi everyone! It's Dave your music guy. Just wanted to tell you that we are having a great time with our songs and song stories. We are learning new ways to sing our major scale as well as signing to a new frog song(wrote that one in traffic). I was actually amazed at how quickly the children learned the sign language part. Younger children are doing well with songs that promote sharing. The babies are fantastic. They each have their clear favorite songs and they are so tuned in! We are improving our rhythm every week. It's so nice to learn while laughing. I must confess how much fun I am having. We will soon perform for you and in the next session we will begin to actually read music and drum more and more. Take care. Dave
