Noah and his Grandpa have always had so much fun singing and playing together.  Lately, however, Grandpa seems to be getting forgetful. Only when Noah sings does he seem to remember all of the fun they have together.  Noah is worried about this new side to Grandpa.

A nice selection to pair with The Remember Balloons by Jesse Oliveros to talk to students about grandparents growing older and memory problems.  I like that it talks about music as a memory stimulator-- plus I think you should sing together as much as possible anyway!
