It's All About the Weather

On April 29, Charlie's kindergarten put on a Weather program at their school. It was delightful! Each of the children taught us something about the weather, and they sang all kinds of fun songs about different kinds of weather.

When the sun comes out , "Zippety Doo-Dah!"

Getting ready for those "Raindrops fallin' on my head."

"Why are there so many songs about rainbows

And what's on the other side?

Rainbows are visions, but only illusions

And rainbows have nothing to hide.

So we've been told and some choose to believe it

I know they're wrong wait and see.

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection

The lovers, the dreamers, and me."

Written by Paul Williams, sang by Kermit the Frog and the Canyon Kindergarteners.

The children perform an interpretive dance about the weather.

I am very impressed with the music program at this school.  They only receive partial funding for the program, and the rest is made up by individual donations, but the instructors do a terrific job.  Kudos to the faculty and staff~

Enjoying that Unexpected Spring Snowstorm

We've had a lot of unexpected, cold, snowy weather this spring - but Jacob and Sydni got right out and made good use of their new snowboard! We've enjoyed watching Jacob and Sydni play on a spring indoor soccer league - and how their skills increased in those two short months of play! . . . and Dad Damien was the coach.  Sydni was actually on a different team, but she substituted for absent team members in nearly every game they played.
