Screw driver and more rhymes

The boy has stopped his “no school” chant and crying – he walks through the gate without any fuss, turns around bids good bye. So far so good.
Yesterday he had a beading competition in school. The first 3 places went to the girls.

He figured out that the screw driver is something that one uses to take toys apart and pokes it in every nook and corner of the toy in his hand. My heart was in my mouth when he ran around with the screw driver in his mouth. When I asked him to give it back, he got so upset that he threw the screw driver and the toy down and started crying.

Today we went to attend a wedding and the boy was glued to the Nadaswaram and Tavil players. For the first time I saw a saxophone being played at a Hindu wedding.

Like last year, this time too he was in awe of the Ganesha and the drum beats. I took him twice to the road when he heard the sound of drum beats.

He (and in turn I!) has learned more rhymes - Goosey Goosey Gander, Hickory Dickory Dock, Old McDonalds Had A Farm, Wheels On The Bus
