That's a great question, Lily! There are so many famous jazz musicians worth learning about, from Nat King Cole to Jelly Roll Morton! However, the jazz player that most folks think about is probably Louis Armstrong. He was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1901. Armstrong shot to fame in the 1920s and kept making hit records in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. By then, he was a worldwide star! 🎺

Hi, Paisyn. About one in five babies are born with blue eyes. But not all of those babies keep their eye color! Over the first few years of a baby's life, they may get more melanin in their eyes. That is a pigment that gives color to human's hair, skin, and eyes. More melanin could make eye color get darker and turn to green, hazel, or brown! 👁️ 👁️
