During a beautiful Spring walk last week, we were pleased to get a close up view of a robin. We even started singing Raffi's song- Robin in the rain, such a saucy fellow....
As we sang and admired the bird- our song ended with ewwwww and many kid giggles. Mr. Robin decided to entertain us by pooping on the lawn. Little man started cracking up- only 2 and he sees humor in this. So much for Spring beauty...well, at least the kids got a good laugh.
It might have been funnier if you were there, but I thought I'd share anyways.

Thanks so much for including our paper plate robin! We will have to learn the Raffi Song today, but I hope it doesn't end with the same ending as your song!
