After a day full of mischief, Little Fuzzies know exactly how to relax and wind down – by taking a bubble bath! But of course, it wouldn’t be a Little Fuzzies adventure without this bubble bath getting in the way of piano practice. These silly lyrics tell the story of piano keys that are all wet, causing the practicer to continue missing notes – all because a Little Fuzzie decided to take a bath!
Students will love the way staccatos and cluster notes sound just like bubbles popping in the tub, all while singing about these silly little creatures!
What Level is Bubble Bath?
Bubble Bath is an elementary level piece. The smallest note value is a quarter note. There is one eighth note at the end of the piece, but students will immediately recognize the rhythm and tune being played during that measure. There is no pedaling, and helpful fingerings are notated.
Whenever the right hand changes position in Bubble Bath, it’s denoted with circled numbers so that students know they are moving to a new hand position. The right hand also only moves out of position in a pattern that is easy to learn and follow. Staccatos are written throughout the piece to create the “popping” sound of bubbles. Lyrics are included in the music.

Bubble Bath is my favorite of the “Little Fuzzies” collection. It’s the lyrics that capture their minds at first, but when they see how easy they can learn it, they’re all in!

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.

One of my 3rd grade students learned Bubble Bath and has thoroughly enjoyed it! In a lesson recently, she said “I don’t know why but this song just makes me happy inside when I play it!” I thought that was just so sweet!
