I just have to say that I had so much fun with this collection of books. The rhythm of the words, the illustrations, everything was done so well.
- Farmyard Beat by Lindsey Craig
- Zin! Zin! Zin! A Violin by Lloyd Moss (SUCH a fun book!)
- Sounds All Around by Wendy Pfeffer
- Animal Orchestra: A Counting Book by Scott Gustafson

We got a collection of Library books that included CDs and music!
- Can You Hear It? by William Lach
This fantastic book links art pieces with musical pieces, and was so much fun. My daughter wanted to keep going all the way through in one sitting!
- Beethoven's Wig by Richard Perlmutter
This fun book includes silly lyrics that go along with some of Beethoven's masterpieces

We did:
I sat down at the piano and dusted off some of my books. The kiddos and I sang a bunch of songs. The Girl walked around for days with her toy harmonica, playing away.
We watched:
I found a bunch of YouTube videos where musicians from the Philharmonica Orchestra in London explained the ins and outs of their instruments.
For fun, we also checked out a Swedish musical group that included a harmonica!
