Join Ms. Elizabeth, Forte the Lion, and our very slow (but very sweet!) friend Adagio the Tortoise as we learn about tempo — how music can be slow like adagio or super fast like presto! With playful characters, guided movement, original songs, and a silly musical game, this episode will help your child feel the speed of music in their body and their imagination.

– Meet Adagio the Tortoise and learn what “adagio” means
– Discover the difference between slow (adagio) and fast (presto) tempo
– Listen to music from Carnival of the Animals and move like a tortoise
– Sing an original “Tortoise Tip-Toe” song and play a silly, sneaky music game
