It is funny sometimes how one piece of information leads to others…
I’ve been looking through Brightly Beaming’s prepatory curriculum to get ideas for things to do with Jessie starting next month. Their week 2 mentions a nursery rhyme that I’d never heard of called “I Had a Little Nut Tree.” So… I Googled it and found a second verse with an audio file, as well as some very interesting information on its history. Seems “the King of Spain’s daughter” mentioned in the first verse is none other than Katherine of Aragon. (pictured) Oh, here’s the sheet music for it too!
So now, in all my excitement, I’ve converted it to ocarina notation in hopes of getting Sam to play it while Jessie and I sing it! I am thinking of doing this rather than digging deeper into music notation with him since it would combine music for him and activities for Jessie.
