I was wondering if anyone had an awesome CD that they just love. I am hoping for one with the classic kid songs and possibly sung by kids not adults. I was given one that has My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean (never sung that) and some other goofy ones that I never heard of..... and it is all opera sounding or too much banjo.
Or even a good CD with lullabies..
Re: Kids songs CD recommendation
I am not going to be much help but I had to laugh at too much banjo. I never noticed it before but now that I think of it a lot of kids songs do have a lot of banjo in them.
We listen to the lullaby station on Pandora at night and the toddler station in the morning and during the day. I don't know if you ever use Pandora but if you like a particular song you can see what album it is on and then buy the album. However, I have noticed most of them are sung by adults with some kids also singing.
Palm to forehead.
When you said CD I thought you meant "cloth diaper"
In which sense your post made no sense to me! haha... Now I get it.
Have you ever heard Renee & Jeremy? They are fantastic -- Music both mommy and baby can listen to. I am a fan of the album Its a Big World
If you like that then you would like Elizabeth Mitchell, Jack Johnson, Bob Marley, and Frances England. They all have the same vibe.
I don't have any CDs sung by kids. The BEST lullaby CD is this
Hawaiian Style Lullabies
Totally worth the price. So relaxing. My older daughter still requests it sometimes.
We also love Dan Zanes, Elizabeth Mitchell, and Laurie Berkner.
I take LO to Music Together classes and they give a cd with the songs sung by both kids and adults. We like the songs and they teach good rhythm patterns. The songs are different than your typical ones.
As far as others...I have a "Guess How Much I Love You" cd set that has a bunch of nice lullabies, we like the They Might be Giants kids cds, and Barenaked Ladies also has a cd that's cute. Not sung by kids, but I personally don't care for the ones sung by kids. Raffi has some good music too, and you can find books that go with his songs.
