“Simon plays the maroccas, shakea-shakea-shakea. Riley plays the flute dinka-dinka-dinka.”

“Simon plays the maroccas, shakea-shakea-shakea. Riley plays the flute dinka-dinka-dinka.” Riley has a new favourite song to sing...not sure if she learned it from school or if it is another one of her made up songs and stories. The entire song goes: “Simon plays the maroccas, shakea-shakea-shakea. Riley plays the flute dinka-dinka-dinka, Daddy plays the drums bamma-bamma-bamma, Mommy plays the guitar struma-struma-struma. We all pretend to play our instruments while she sings....a sight to be seen. We were at the grocery store the other day and came across a plastic flute and some moroccas...I couldn't resist. As we were checking out the cashier actually said to us “oh, you're going to regret this”...the car ride home was a little noisy, but fun. When we got home, our little band struck up and with all the high pitched squealling so did Newman...the howling began...now there is a new line to Riley's song....Newman signs a song...and he howls away...watch out Partridge family; here come the Hubbards.
