Band-wide

How this band works

A few friendly house rules, so the farm and the stage stay clear of each other.

The band is an upright, clothed performance layer only — music-video, stage and concert scenes.
The farm cast stays on four legs.
Spike and Suzy are the stars. The band backs them.
The gold bull-star logo is the band mark, on the drums and the piano.

Spike & Suzy

The band backs the stars

Spike and Suzy are the stars of the show. Little Thunder is his own character, and is not Thunder Beats. The Barnyard Rockstars play behind them on the songs, the stage and the concert scenes.

Spike, Suzy and Little Thunder together. Little Thunder is not Thunder Beats. — Spike, Little Thunder and Suzy. Little Thunder is not Thunder Beats.

Value of the week

Sharing

This week we are talking about sharing — a picnic blanket, a last mango, and plenty of room for friends.

Spotted: The Band Share One Picnic Blanket

Five friends, one shady tree, and enough fruit for everyone.

Read aloud: The band had a picnic under a tree. Daisy shared the last mango so every friend could have a taste.
