Back in December the kids watched a Curious George Christmas movie a lot... and have been humming the "Christmas Monkey" song ever since. Well, this morning I heard Catherine singing words to it -- and somehow or another she had put Robert Frost's "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" to the tune of "Christmas Monkey." And the words fit the tune perfectly! I'm kind of amazed myself!
This week we're learning Walt Whitman's "O Captain! My Captain!" in honor President's Day... we'll see if she can find a nice mournful tune to that one!
