What songs do you sing to LO?

just kita · July 2011

LO seems to like it when I sing to him, but I don't have many age appropriate songs in my repertoire. I mostly just sing along with whatever is playing on pandora at the time, and sometimes the lyrics of what I'm singing make my cringe..

ABC song

Froggy Song (I forget the actual name)

You Are My Sunshine

Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes

Pat-a-Cake (not really a song but whatever)

Twinkle-Twinkle Little Star

I'm a Little Teapot

Wheels on the Bus

I also just make up songs with words about whatever we're doing (changing diapers, feeding bottles, ect.)... I'm sure if there were people around, they'd think I was nuts.

Find a camp counselor and have them teach you everything they know. All the songs we sing are camp songs. I also sing her songs from musicals, Disney movies, and our night time song is The Rose.

I bought a 3-CD set at Target that Parents magazine puts out with a bunch of nursery rhymes and lullabies. It's really nice!

About 75% of the songs I sing to all the kids are ones that I made up! I do them to the tune of popular songs and just add silly stuff! I always incorporate their names too. We get a lot of funny looks in the stores when I sing to them to distract them from flipping out on me, but it's all worth it!! My 4 year old now requests some of the made up songs. lol.

Ty likes hey ya by outlast and don't stop believing by journey!! Eta: that's when I'm trying to out him to sleep. Other than that I mainly just talk to him. I need to start singing more!

We swing sweet caroline to her for obvious reasons... then last night I was singing the hush little baby song but I would make up all kinds of random things that mommy was going to bring her. It was pretty amusing to DH.

I sing some kid's songs (ABCs, Head Shoulders Knees and Toes, You Are My Sunshine, etc), some songs I like or sang in choir/voice (I like the lullaby All Through The Night).

I often end up changing the words to add her name in somewhere or just make up silly nonsense songs, like PPs.

I was just thinking yesterday that I need to sing to him more. I can't usually come up with the lyrics unless I'm actually listening to a song, though, so usually I'll just put on my iPod and sing along. Or if I have a song stuck in my head, I sing that to him. The last few days it's been "Sweet Child of Mine" lol.

She gets a lot of hits of the 90's from me, because those are the songs I know by heart! She seems to really like elderly woman behind the counter in a small town by pearl jam.

You are my sunshine, Hush Little Baby, ABC's, Twinkle Twinkle Little star- I usually rotate those 4 because I actually know the words..LOL

I started singing to her (just now) "I'd Do Anything" from Oliver. I saw it on a commercial today and found a version with a woman and some children (not the Oliver version) and I rocked her back and forth while it played.

I sing whatever is on the radio while we are feeding too.
