My Little Drummer Boy

Elijah loves drums right now. Earlier this month, one of my student's dads brought his drum set to school and Elijah was thrilled.

Tonight we pulled out Ezra Jack Keats' "The Little Drummer Boy" and sang it many, many times. Elijah liked keeping the beat with his drum. We also discovered that none of our CD versions of the song actually use drums.



As he looked at the album cover for one of our CDs, Elijah noticed the "boat" on the cover. I corrected him and told him it was a sled. So he asked me, "Kind of boat?" Snow and winter things are such a foreign concept to him!
