We're so happy you're here.

Today we're gonna do something really fun.

(Herbie gasps)

We are going to look around our houses

and try and find things

that we can use as musical instruments.

- Wow, that's great idea! - Yeah!

Yeah, I can't wait to see what you find.

- Me too!

(lively piano music)

- The idea for this music lesson

came from my friend Ms. Traxler.

She's also a music teacher.

And I'll link, so you can see

her really cool YouTube page too.

Do you remember when we tapped a steady beat

to "The Muffin Man"?

- I don't remember, do you remember?

- One, two, three, four.

♪ Do you know the muffin man ♪

♪ The muffin man, the muffin man ♪

♪ Do you know the muffin man ♪

♪ Who lives on Drury Lane ♪

So now we're gonna go around our houses

and try and find things that we can tap.

Make sure to get a grown-up's help for this project.

(lively piano music)

We're back from our treasure hunt for musical instruments,

and we can't wait to show you what we found.

We also can't wait to hear about what you found.

- [Herbie] Look what I found!

(Rachel laughs)

- Wow, Herbie!

- Look.

Oh, thank you. (Rachel laughs)

- That's awesome, I love it! - Yeah!

- Wow, what can we tap this with?

- Hmm, I didn't think that far ahead.

(Rachel laughs)

- Okay, well, I found a brush.

Should we try that? - Ooh, okay.

♪ Do you know the muffin man ♪

That works well.

I also found a spoon. - Ooh!

♪ Do you know the muffin man ♪

- Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait.

I have something too.

How about this carrot?

- Wow! (laughs)

Awesome, let's try it.

♪ Do you know the muffin man ♪

Wow, what did you notice when I played the carrot

compared to the spoon?

(spoon clinks)

(carrot taps)

- The carrot's yummier?

- (laughs) The carrot is much yummier.

- It's also orange, like me.

(Rachel laughs)

- And it's quieter. - Oh!

- Yeah, so if we're gonna play quiet,

which in music we call piano, we could use the carrot.

♪ Do you know the muffin man ♪

Now let's do loud with the spoon.

♪ Do you know the muffin man ♪

♪ The muffin man, the muffin man ♪

Yeah, we call that forte in music.

- Ooh. - Forte!

Hi, Aaron. - Hi, Rachel.

Hi, friends.

- Could you play "The Muffin Man" on the piano,

while we tap our instruments we found around the house?

- Sure, I'd be happy to.

(upbeat piano music)

♪ Do you know the muffin man ♪

Now I'm gonna change to something else I found.

I found a box and a brush.

Oh, and I have another box of tissues.

(lively piano music)

- I heard you like trains.

(train honks)

I like trains too!

Do you wanna pretend to be a train with me?

All right!

What sound does the train make?

That's right, chugga-chugga, chugga-chugga, chugga-chugga,

chugga-chugga, choo-choo!

So we're gonna pretend to be trains.

We're gonna walk in a circle with our arms like this.

And whenever I say the word stop,

we're gonna freeze,

and wait for the train to start back up again.

You can just follow along right up here.

Are you ready?

All aboard! (train honks)

Whoo, that was fun!

- Do you remember when we sang "Mr. Golden Sun",

and we used a shaker? - Yeah!

Next let's go around our house and try and find things

that we can shake, are you ready?

- (gasps) Yeah! - Let's go!

- Let's go! - Musical treasure hunt!

(lively piano music)

What did you find around the house to shake, Herbie?

- Kale.

- Hmm.

- A diaper!

- Hmm?

- Oh, and a sippy cup with rice in it.

- That's a great idea!

This one really works.

I love how it sounds. - Great!

- So what I did is I took a plastic egg,

put a little rice in it.

Normally I put a spoon and another spoon and some tape,

but I only had a fork and a spoon, so I just made that work.

It's like a little shaker, yeah!

- Nice.

- How if we see sing "Mr. Golden Sun" with Aaron

and use our home-made shakers?

- Okay, great.

- Next we look for things we can blow into.

This is what we found!

Let's try it.

Wow, that makes a low sound!

Next we're looking for things we can scrape or rub.

We found a cheese grater and a spoon.

(spoon rattling)

That sounds cool!

What did you find?

Let's try using our scraper to "Row, Row, Row Your Boat".

(upbeat piano music)

♪ Row, row, row your boat ♪

That was so much fun!

I have a little stuffed animal.

Do you know what this is?

It's a lamb.

Can you get a stuffed animal

or an action figure to dance with?

And then we'll do a dance together.

(gentle piano music)

♪ Mary had a little lamb ♪

♪ Little lamb, little lamb ♪

♪ Mary had a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow ♪

That was so fun!

You know, we can change the lyrics.

Lyrics are the words of the song.

So, if your name is Michael, you could say

♪ Michael had a little ♪

And then you could fill in whatever pet you want.

Let's try it with my name.

♪ A little cat, a little cat ♪

I would love to hear what pet you chose,

and what you said for the fur.

- Hey, everyone, guess what it's time for?

♪ Word of the day ♪

- Word of the day, that's my other favorite part!

- Hi, Herbie! - Hi, Rachel!

- The word of the day is tempo.

- I'll take Venmo or PayPal.

- Herbie, not the app Venmo!

- Just kidding, I don't have money.

- (chuckles) Tempo. - Mm-hmm.

- Tempo is how fast

or slow

music is.

So, if you were a firefighter,

and you had to get to a fire to put it out,

would you go fast or slow?

- Fast!

- Yeah, you'd wanna get there fast!

Now, after you put out the fire, and everything was good,

and you're tired, and you're going back to the station,

would you go slow or fast?

- I forgot.

- I think slow, because you're tired, and the fire's out.

Let's sing a song, and we'll use both tempos.

- Yes!

- Okay, so get on your fire hat.

- Boop!

- And your fire coat. - Okay.

- And your boots. - Oh.

Okay.

- And slide down the pole.

- Whee. - Oh, whee!

- [Herbie] What do you do to make the piano go?

- You press the keys with your fingers.

- Ooh! - Yeah!

- [Herbie] Do all of these make noise?

- Uh-huh.

On this side we have some low notes, like an elephant.

- [Herbie] Low, low notes!

- Low, (roars) like an elephant. (trumpets)

On this side we have high notes.

Like a little squeaky mouse, squeak, squeak, squeak.

High notes.

- How many keys are there?

I'll count.

One. (Rachel laughs)

- Herbie, it would take too long

to count all the keys on the piano.

There are 88 keys on the piano.

- Whoa! - Yeah.

Should we sing a song with the piano?

Do you play an instrument?

Now where do you play the piano?

- Well, I play at home, and I play on Broadway.

And I play for friends.

Do you practice the piano?

It takes a lot of practice to learn how to play the piano,

but it's a lot of fun.
