Musical Memories

Play special songs to make memories all year

long. “Happy Birthday to You” isn’t the only

birthday song in the world—find another

one in your family’s music collection, or ask

an adult to look for one online that you can

download. Play that song first thing in the

morning on each family member’s birthday.

Or play a certain song to celebrate going on a

vacation, having a snow day, or even the fact

that it’s Friday!

King or Queen for a Day

Ask a parent to pick up an inexpensive crown

or tiara from a costume shop. Then when-

ever someone in your family does something

great, that person gets to wear it for a little

while. Maybe you learned to play a piece of

music on the piano—wear the tiara! Or your

brother mastered a soccer trick—on with

the crown! Reminding someone to wear it is

almost as much fun as wearing it yourself.

Cute Collection

See if your sister would like to

start a collection with you. Pick

something sweet, like hearts,

or something silly, like gnomes.

Then whenever you’re out and

see something for the collec-

tion, buy it for her or take a

picture to share with her later.
