Two Silly Birds
This is the second book in the Toot & Hoot Flute Headjoint Storybook series. Meet Silly Bird Blue and Silly Bird Yellow, two birds who live just a few branches away from each other and love to compete! They soon learn the importance of listening and how to enjoy making music together.
Much like the first book in this series—The Mouse and The Cheese—students use the flute headjoint to create sound effects that accompany the narrative, while a teacher, parent, or fellow flutist reads the story. It ends with a short composition activity for the student.
This is a fun and engaging activity for beginner flutists, helping them to master the technique of producing sound while having fun! It’s also perfect for small performances in the studio or for the family — children absolutely love it!
Review:
"We thoroughly enjoyed the Two Silly Birds story! We used it as a small performance at home for our family. I read the story while my daughter performed the sounds on the head-joint. It was entertaining for all of us, and she said she would like to do more stories like this"
