Christes Maesse

Tt’s presentation of “Medieval Christmas” for Homeschool Club’s “Christmas Around the World” day.
I find it so much easier to video tape his practice round at home, where Boo isn’t tugging at my arms and other kids aren’t talking.

Ok. This book actually is very good. The decorations I really like.
I never knew that the Romans had Christmas. I wonder if the Greeks had Christmas too…
I also never knew they did plays without any words (Mumming) - sorta sounds like “humming”.
My favorite part of a Medieval Christmas would have been the decorations. In particularily, the orange one (pomanders) - I call them Charmanders. (way to incorporate Pokemon into Medieval times, Tt…)

Please watch my video. It will be going on TV (Apple TV, that is!).

The Zoo

Tt is slooooowly learning piano – not that he is slow, we just never EVER practice. Ever.

But he loves going to his lesson, and loves his teacher who is great, so on he goes until we can find it in our schedule to actually do some practicing.

This week his teacher recorded him doing a super funky rendition of “The Zoo” – no wonder he loves going to see her!
