Our Little Guitar Hero

The big thing right now are music games such as Guitar Hero and Rock Band. We have opted for the former. Whither you are playing or watching, fun is had by all. It is definitely a great way to get everyone, especially children, excited about music. Every now and then Joel and Ruthann will come over and play. It's fun to watch them because they are much better then Aaron and Amanda. Zack has a great fondness for this as well. So much so, he has his own 'toy' guitar that he uses to play with the band. But what is most admirable is how he has picked up how to use the drums. Every now and then he will pick up the drum sticks and say "I'll play". Aaron has been working on patterns with Zack too. He will tell Zack a pattern and Zack will repeat it by hitting the corresponding color pads. He is such a smart kid. But hey, we are his parents, we get to brag as much as we'd like to!
