The Songs of the Summer

Lately, we've been listening to a lot of music.  Summertime can be hot midday and it's nice to have a little singing.  Rose has been introducing Teddy to American Music, and for the 4th of July she took him to visit the American Museum in Bath. 

She has introduced him to Funk from Louisiana through the Meters 'Audubon Zoo' 

She's gotten a bit of the Shirelles too, as she trades tucking Teddy in at night with Dan, she'll tell him, 'Tonight you're mine' 

And a cover of Bobby Darin's Splish Splash, the Sha Na Na version is quite fun watching and listening. Teddy likes this one in the tub. 

Teddy really enjoys music and singing and dancing. He will sing to himself while he's playing and make up little songs about things in his life. It reminds us of how it can be easier to express things through music and how powerful music is in our lives.
