Noah's Composition

Here's Noah and his notation of his tune!

He composed this little tune one evening when he was moody, and I believed, it cheered him up. I tried putting some words in for him and you can try to sing it, it's fun.

"That sounds good, interesting, do you like my tune?"

Jadyn's Lullaby

Jadyn composed this lullaby all by herself, without any help from me !

It's a lovely little song, ending on the tonic (the first note of the key).

Well done Jadyn, I'm sure your teddy loves this lullaby.
