We finished up the letter J with a little bit of jazz. C and R really enjoyed reading This Jazz Man by Karen Ehrhardt. I love this book. It introduces children to jazz musicians like Louis Armstrong, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Duke Ellington, and more. In addition to this great jazz introduction, the book also reinforces counting from one to ten. After reading the book, we listened to some jazz music by the musicians featured in the book. C and R both love the song, What a Wonderful World sung by Louis Armstrong. We have been singing this a lot lately because we have also been reading the book of the same title. The book features the lyrics of the song by George David Weiss and Bob Thiele with beautiful illustrations by Ashley Bryan.
C and R also completed the Jack and Jill puzzle and a jellyfish puzzle that we forgot we had.
