Aiken Drum

Do you know the song "Aiken Drum"?  Usually he is made from food ingredients, but today, we "made" him from musical instruments we have in our Music classroom!  Mrs. Plunkett's First Graders help make this version, including the following:

"There was a man lived in the moon, lived in the moon, lived in the moon.
There was a man lived in the moon, and his name was Aiken Drum...

And his head was made of a hand drum, a hand drum, a hand drum...
And his body was made of a washboard...
And his arms were made of maracas...
And his legs were made of jingle sticks...
And his eyes were made of finger cymbals...
And his nose was made of a triangle...
And his mouth was made of sleigh bells...
And his hair was made of rhythm sticks...

AND HIS NAME WAS AIKEN DRUM!!!
