Not Unusual for Him

The chant in Unusual Paired meter posted below was presented to Grandchild #1, not quite 3 years old. Grammy presented the online version just before he got to it in Class 9, so she could observe his response first-hand. The child was enamored with the chant, asking for it again and again. He chanted with the recording, fully at ease with the unusual meter. A couple of weeks later, in the car, Grammy started the chant. The child chimed right in. After making up some verses with Grammy, he delivered the final verse, in solo, precisely in Unusual Paired meter. “Where am I? Where am I? Where am I? I’m eating a pie!”
