I played this when I was in first grade and soon after I switched to the trombone around 5th grade and it has been lingering in the back of my head for years so I tried to transcribe this to play on trombone and now I can sorta play on trombone 😂 I totally forgot that I could look up the music to transcribe instead of just trying to play from memory 🤦‍♀️
