You can use the song to practice how to play the two accidental notes on the upper row of the glockenspiel / xylophone.
Watch the video a couple of times and study each part at your own pace until you get the hang of it. Remember to use both mallets as much as you can – not only the one that is more convenient for you (e.g. the right one if you’re right-handed) as this an important basic technique.
