Maybe the song helped:
"We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star"
"O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy Perfect Light"
My daughter always says that if they taught classes in song, people would think she's a genius. She can remember the words to every song she's ever heard - almost. But, give her a lecture or an assignment to read, and it's an entirely different story. So let's start a campaign to have teachers sing the periodic tables ;)

And, now, for EARTH-FRIENDLY FRIDAY.
Read about organic baby wear here. Babies are so perfect and pure, who wouldn't want to put the very best on their delicate skin?

Awwww...I need a baby gift, so thanks for the link!
I love that you do these earth friendly Fridays. I worked for the National Wildlife Federation for over 8 years so conservation is very important to me!
Organic baby wear is a great idea. When I was a teacher, I would occasionally teach things by song. I also taught my kids how to spell their name to a tune, as well. It works! I can name all 50 states in abc order because of a song I learned in grade school!
I've wondered that too--and a song for the multiplication tables!
Gotta love Schoolhouse Rock!
What cute little outfits...I'm going to need some little baby gifts right after the first of the year, and I love the bright colors of these...thanks...
