Bracken loves to sing! He often goes around the house singing one of the hundreds of songs he has memorized, or making up some of his own (very entertaining). When Brian got his trumpet out several months ago, Bracken wanted to try it out. We didn't think he would be able to get a noise out, but boy were we wrong! He gets all red in the face, his eyes bulge and his cheeks puff out, but he gets some pretty good elephant noises out of the trumpet! He asks to get it out and play the trumpet at least a couple times a week. He also likes to play Brian's guitar, a homemade gazoo, or drums on just about anything.
I let him watch Peter and the Wolf a couple weeks ago. He loved it and often asks me to act the story out with him. He's usually Sasha the bird, Chandra is Sonja the duck, and I'm Peter or the wolf. He notices the different sounds instruments have now and when he hears music will often ask me "Is that a clarinet?" (or an oboe, bassoon, violin, etc.)
