We could go sleighing in the middle of July through sundrifts and sunbanks, we could ride a sunmobile, and we could touch sunflakes— I wonder how they'd feel.   To learn even more details about our Summer Four Seasons Curriculum check out this blog post: https://www.clapforclassics.com/blog/summer   Episode 24 of the podcast includes another song from our summer four seasons course: https://www.clapforclassics.com/podcasts/clap-for-classics/episodes/2147767173   Help more families find out about this podcast by leaving us a review wherever you listen.   To leave Forte and I a message or a joke please record it here: http://www.speakpipe.com/clapforclassics.
