A bear, however hard he tries,

Grows tubby without exercise.

Our Teddy Bear is short and fat

Which is not to be wondered at;

He gets what exercise he can

By falling off the ottoman,

But generally seems to lack

The energy to clamber back. Get bonus content on Patreon

Always tune-up before class otherwise you will not sound nice. Get a grown-up to help you if possible until you learn how to do it yourself.
I recommend that all parents learn to tune their kid's instruments asap. Get bonus content on Patreon

LibriVox recording of the Just So Stories, by Rudyard Kipling. Read by Kara Shallenberg.

The stories, first published in 1902, are fantastic accounts of how various natural phenomena came about. The original editions of Just So Stories were illustrated with woodcuts by Kipling himself. Many of the stories are addressed to "Best Beloved" (they were first written for Kipling's eldest daughter, Josephine, who had died during an outbreak of influenza in 1899), and throughout they use a comically elevated style inspired by the formal speech of India, full of long and improbable-sounding words, some of them made up. As a result, it is a delight to read them aloud, and easy to memorise passages from them. (Summary from Wikipedia) Get bonus content on Patreon

This is a fabulous song for learning our Gmajor scale. The Tale Teller loves this tune so much that they will be doing it for cello AND piano but you can use any instrument you like. We will learn it by memory at the Tale Teller School of Music too so you will not have to read music. Get bonus content on Patreon
