Prokofiev in the playground? At a party on Friday, my 4 year-old daughter walks up the piano, sits down, and starts plinking the middle keys and says "Here are some children walking through the woods."

Then she hits a the lowest note she can reach a couple of times and says "Here comes a bear."

So needless to say, I immediately downloaded Peter and the Wolf for her from iTunes, and she listened to it five times this weekend.

Of course, we amended it to reassure her that the wolf has an operation at the zoo to remove the duck, last heard plaintively quacking away inside the wolf's stomach.  ¶ 10:45 PM
