Flannel board activity: The Trumpet went Toot, Toot, Toot (in the children’s room blog)

The trumpet wanted to start a band
So he asked the sax to lend a hand
The trumpet went toot, toot, toot
The sax sang be bop beep
The sound wasn’t quite right
And then the drums marched into sight
The trumpet went toot, toot, toot
The sax sang be bop beep
And the drums said a rat a tat tat
But the sound still wasn’t there
So a piano song filled the air
The trumpet went toot toot toot|
The drums said a rat a tat tat
And the piano trilled plink plink plink
Four instruments in one band
Play the jazziest jazz in the land
