That student was probably me. I took a key ring, put the bell  on the key
ring, and pinned it to the back of ny son's shirt. When he started wearing
shoes, I got those squeaker shoes and had squeakers in the bottom so every
time he took a step, they would squeak. But unfortunately, he figured out
how to walk on his toes so they wouldn't squeak so I had to quit using
those. shirt.
