I swear that 'Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap' by
Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of AC/DC
got me through some tough moments with a newborn. Oh, the irony to hear that song on a xylophone, while addressing a
Number Three!
Some of our other favorite albums for playtime are
Bare Naked Ladies-Snacktime
,
Ziggy Marley-Family Time
(we love the song "Walk Tall") and anything by
Putumayo Kids
.
We are also into Ernie & Bert's Greatest Hits,
Sesame Street Fiesta Songs
, Cowgirl Sue- Giddy Up! Whoa!,
Disney Greatest Hits Collection
, and
Laurie Berkner
. Need a soundtrack for toddler tantrums? It's so much more fun when one can sing
Justin Roberts-Meltdown (ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-meltown!).

Let me know what your favorites are. We try to keep it fresh (and so clean, clean!) in our household.

or They Might Be Giants' Hot Dog
out of your head.
We really liked "For the Kids" http://www.amazon.com/Kids-Various-Artists/dp/B00006L7QX
ReplyDeleteThere are three volumes, I think, but we only had the first one. I still like some of the songs on it! :)
