We do that at school every day.
Today it's... sunny!

Wiggle my ears!
- Ooh, that's a good one.

Come sit, please.
- Ba!
- Margaret, no!
Put that down.
(Margaret whining) Mom!
Margaret won't sit down.

It might be hard for her to sit still.
- But... but...
I want her to!
We're playing school!
Can you help?
- You know what, Daniel?

Maybe that will help.
- OK, Margaret.
How about... first we finish playing school, then you can play the tambourine.
OK?
(Margaret growling) She still won't sit!
Maybe she wants to do something else.
What do you think Margaret wants to do?
Hmm.
She's holding a tambourine!
So... maybe she wants to make music... and dance!
♪ You're big enough You're big enough ♪ ♪ To think of what to do ♪ I just thought of something.
I know what to do!
OK, Margaret.
It's music time!
(Margaret giggling) I did it!
We can make music and still play school!
- I'm proud of you, my big tiger.
I mean, Teacher Daniel.
- Thanks, Mom.
