If you use Faber Piano Adventures you are probably familiar with the level one piece titled "Mexican Jumping Beans " which introduces staccato articulation. Recently I had a student ask me what a Mexican Jumping Bean was he had never heard of them. As I tried to explain to him what they were I thought why not get some for the children to see in real life. So far they have been a huge hit! It has been surprising to me how many of my students had never heard of them.
If you do a search online you will find that peak jumping bean season is in August : however, I was able to find some inexpensively on eBay. They were shipped usps first class mail and all 15 were alive and well upon arrival. :) fun, fun!
