Who's Teaching Ukulele in School?

Charley great stuff on your blog, I look forward to reading more.

I've been teaching and jamming with my 7 and 10 year old kids for a few months and it has been a great way to spend some creative family time. We've mostly been working on chord progressions and strumming. Now we need to figure out some songs. I've had a hard time finding songs that are easy enough to play, yet still keep their interest. They are kind of past the "Mary Had A Little Lamb" "You Are My Sunshine" stage, yet the pop stuff they like to listen to doesn't usually transpose to the key of C or G well.
 
To answer the thread title question: my daughter's college music education classmates (and her), to each other, as part of their first-year music education course. Students buy their own ukes (although my daughter, and likely others, already have one). They might not have started teaching yet -- they need to get acquire their axes -- but I'm going to ask her how it goes.
