 Its extremely simple melody (mi-do-mi-do-fa-mi-RE, sol-sol-sol-(la-ti)-do-do-DO) is suitable for teaching small children to play piano (with a suitable "nursery" lyrics).Several Russian classical composers, including Sergey Prokofyev,  Isaak Dunaevsky  and Rimsky-Korsakov, were inspired with "Chizhik".In 1994, the municipal authorities of St. Petersburg installed a bronze statue of "Chizhik-Pyzhik" just opposite the former School of Jurisprudence.
