When she was 5 mo I used to sing "You make me feel like dancing. I want to dance the night away. Woo-hoo." I would just sing that line over and over again and she would calm down. Doesn't work anymore.
She loves when I play Jack Johnson's "Better Together", but as far as me singing to her, she loves an old song by John Denver (we listened to it when I was a kid) "For Baby". I sing it to her before naps and she zonks out immediately.
Re: What is your LOs favorite song?
I don't know the name of it - I call it the knock knock song. It goes:
knock knock knock knock who's at the door
it's Ava. Ava.
Hello Ava.
I change it around all the time to include Daddy, Mommy, Grandma, the cats names, etc. She really likes it.
I meant Brahms.
