Jolly Old Saint Nicholas The second part of the book has the "3 Little Pigs" fairy tale with a musical score. We suggest a lot of activities that can be done with any percussion instrument or any sound made with home utensils, for example, while listening to the story. This fairy tale encourages a child's musical activity, even if they have never played music before. Orff believed that each child should not be a passive listener, but an active co-creator. Not only can you and your kids play using a percussion instrument musical set, but also with any other musical sounds you can come up with.
