Enjoying Patriotic Music

With our curriculum this year, we are listening to and learning a handful of patriotic music. It has been lots of fun! Our most recent favorites have been You're a Grand Old Flag and The Stars and Stripes Forever. Olivia (with a little help from me) made herself and Gabe drums decorated in a patriotic theme. We had a great time marching around with them. Even Ezra joined in the fun!

After these pictures were taken, Olivia (and daddy) added a sling to the drums so they could be worn around their necks and played more easily. She tried to use construction paper to make them at first but that didn't hold up. So daddy helped her put string on hers.
