"Old Man In The Tidepool" is part of the album "Qi Songs For Crystal Kids," a delightful exploration of sound and energy that brings language and playfulness to the gifts of our youngest generation. With exciting melodies and wonderfully curious lyrics, this album invites an accessible relationship to big feelings and mindfulness to both children, families, and educators. There was an old man who lived in a village
 He had a big family, who loved to eat fishes 
he went to the tide pools to cast out his line 
and catch a fish for dinner time He waited and waited and waited some more
 he looked down and saw a gigantic white pearl 
“with this one pearl” he thought “I could be rich! 
I’ll never have to wait for a fish!” So he splashed in the tide pool
 “shhhh, shhh, shhh” to look for the pearl he looked up too soon, saw the glorious moon but the pearl, 
the pearl was gone Music by Marya Stark Art by Lindy Kehoe
