Curtis the music man

We've been pretty slow in getting round to putting Curtis's birthday money to use - apologies to those still waiting to know what we've done with theirs, but today we can finally tell Grandad Ken that Curtis's birthday money was used to buy him his very first guitar - a mini one of perfect baby proportions with safely capped off tuning coils as well as a percussion set which included a cool drum & drumsticks, a harmonica, a tambourine and two shakers.

For some time now he's shown an interest in Gareths guitar and to give Curtis more freedom to experiment we thought one his own size would be great fun. He loves it, though isn't sure if it's a musical instrument or a ride on toy, often combining both. He bashes away on the drum, shakes the shakers and tambourine but is yet to master blowing to produce a noise from the harmonica. He puts it to our mouths to play it for him and this amuses him immensly so I'm sure the day he does it himself he'll be totally blown away!

Thanks Grandad Ken, I love my presents and I've got a sneaking suspicion that you'll be kinda pleased with the choice of gifts too x x x x x
