Thank you very much as I sit here trying to plan lessons, etc. for my boys
with special needs.....I checked out the PBSkids.org site (one that my
oldest student frequents often) and am enchanted by the possibilities for my
class. There are tunes and stories, real kids and activities, all in just a
few minutes. With my kids, short is better!

Thanks again....you made my day!
