A strolling violinist at the God Made Kindermusic Zoo raises the Kinderkids' curiosity about the violin. Mr. Z, with the help of Sally Squirrel and Gerald Giraffe, shares some interesting facts with the Kinderkids about this amazing instrument. Lovely violin music is playing continuously throughout the entire lesson to train the Kinderkids' musical ears to hear the many sounds it can make.
