Today is Violin Day! The violin is such a cool instrument; it has been around for more than 500 years! Watch a 6-year-old kid play her violin in the video below. Do you recognize the song?
Talk to you later!

Hi readers,
The May 2016 issue of Chirp is all about HORSES! Have you ever ridden a horse or seen one up close? Horses are the best! In this issue, we visit a horse stable, make a horsey craft to play with, and get moving to a silly horse rhyme. Giddy up!

Hey readers!
I just read a great book called Prickly Jenny by Sibylle Delacroix from Owlkids.
When daddy takes her to the fair, Jenny grumbles and drags her feet. When there’s ice cream for dessert, she doesn’t want it. She also doesn’t want anyone to say nice things about her artwork.
Jenny doesn’t know what she wants right now, but she’s sure she will when she’s older.
This simple, yet important story makes this book a must-read.
Look for Prickly Jenny in your bookstore, library or find it here!
Bye for now,
Melissa, chirpblog@owlkids.com
