Alligator at the Symphony:)

Graham and I went to a Children's Concert at the Symphony. The special guests were from the Zoo. He got to pet an alligator, baby kangaroo, something that looked like a skunk , but wasn't:) Also, see above picture, he got to try out a little violin. The concert was great, held his attention, and in between each piece they would bring out another animal to show the kids. H learned a lot about the Symphony, it was amazing to me how much he took in from the conductor. He came home, got out his box of instruments, and was showing me all the ones that he saw, and then when it was time to put them away, wanted to put them away according to their "families". The conductor taught the kids about the families in the symphony orchestra; the woodwinds, brass, percussion, and strings. He was very interested in them all. Lots of fun!
