Beethoven’s Bird Beethoven was an avid nature lover and often used a walk in the woods for inspiration. This bird is just one of many nature sounds he used in his Sixth Symphony.

With the help of someone older, cut out the bird and and the spiral. Attach one end of a piece of string or ribbon to the bird, and the other end to backside of “x” on the spiral. Fasten another piece of string or ribbon to the backside of the white dot, hang from the ceiling and let your imagination soar — just like Beethoven did.

Jumpin’ Jazz — A Swinging Jungle Tale “Jumpin’ Jazz — A Swinging Jungle Tale” is an entertaining and educational mixture of song and story about the adventures of a 7-year-old girl named Claire and her jungle friends. When Claire’s favorite stuffed animals magically come to life, we meet unforgettable and lovable characters such as Elephant’s Gerald, Little Growl, Hector the Hummingbird, and the Loneliest Monkey. Their songs teach us about jungle life from their point of view and the transformative power of music and imagination.
