I learned a new word today in French! I think some of your kids may get a kick out of it.
The word is "zinzinuler" (few words in French have 2 'z' in them!)

It's the verb used to describe little birds singing. It's the action of singing for the chickadees and hummingbirds among others.

:D

It reminds me of the beloved English picture book: Zin Zin Zin, a violin! (http://www.amazon.com/Zin-Violin-Aladdin-Picture-Books/dp/0689835248/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1258622464&sr=8-1)
