Literacy Tip
Hi, my name is Cydney and this is my 24-month-old son, Stephen. He loves music. This song is great because it repeats in every line. His brain connections are made stronger through repetition.
Here’s a tip: use cotton balls for snowflakes!
Transcript
(Tune: Did You Ever See a Lassie)
There’s a snowflake on my shoulder, my shoulder, my shoulder. There’s a snowflake on my shoulder and it’s melting away! There’s a snowflake on my elbow… There’s a snowflake on my tummy… There’s a snowflake on my knee… There’s a snowflake on my head…

Gee, I love this! I can’t wait to try it with my granddaughter – 3 1/2 months. I will use a butterfly for the spring and summer and even try to get a small one to use as I sing to her!! can’t wait for more. Thanks, Grace
I changed this using a leaf for fall… it’s blowing away… instead of melting away!
