What’s more fun than a birthday party thrown for you by the Little Fuzzies? Hip hip, hooray! It’s party day! We can’t blame them for a few silly bloopers when they tried so hard, can we? Find out what bloopers the Fuzzies made in this fun birthday piece!
What Level is Birthday Blooper?
Birthday Blooper is a fun elementary piano solo that is part of the Adventures of Little Fuzzies series. It is written in C Major and is written in the middle C hand position initially. The right hand moves higher in the B section. The smallest note value is the quarter note. Left hand plays B flat throughout and also plays a sharp once, and right hand plays accidentals regularly throughout (D sharp, E flat, and B flat). No pedaling is required. Fingering, phrasing, and articulation is indicated throughout. The largest interval is a third and there the left hand jumps down an octave at the ending.
Bonus mp3 and QR Code for students
Birthday Blooper includes a bonus mp3 of this performance with your purchase. You may send this mp3 to your student to help them learn the piece and remember how it sounds.
Plus, a QR code is included on the first page of the PDF (not pictured in the sample) so students can scan the code and it will take them directly to the performance recording of the piece. This can help them be inspired and learn the piece even more effectively without you having to send the mp3 to them!

Great piece. Here’s a hint that we found. With the misspelling of Hapy Birthdy, there is a skip near the missed letter!!!

I have started a “Little Fuzzies Club” in my studio for my youngest students. One is a beginner and the others have had lessons for 1-3 years. Members have a handbook where they put the Little Fuzzies stickers once they’ve completed a piece. Their pictures are on a bulletin board under the title “Little Fuzzies Club”. Because of their interest, I’ve purchased every Little Fuzzies piece that Wendy Stevens has composed. The music has repetitive patterns in most cases but there are challenges they wouldn’t have in beginning lesson books: hand positions that move around the keyboard, music symbols (sharps, flats, naturals), pedal usage, 1st and 2nd endings. Because the lyrics are so engaging and the Fuzzies have humorous adventures all around the house and at different times of the year, students love playing them. Their lesson book pieces have become “too easy” and I’ve been using them for sight reading activities. Having a fun piece to practice motivates my students to go to the piano willingly and share their music with others.
