Day 31: Just Not Enough Days!
As I mentioned recently, Gv loves to dance. It seems she has been aware of music from the moment she arrived and has found a way to move to the beat just after that. I play my iPod during the day and we usually have at least one session of a mommy-daughter dance-a-thon before the day is through.
As Gv's awareness of music and her dancing skills have progressed, I've wanted to not only expose her to my favorite music, but seek out tunes specifically geared for her age and development. I've spent the past several weeks on the hunt for the best kid's music I can find - music that not only Gv will love, but that I'll enjoy listening to, as well.
It's my goal to create a kid's music playlist by the end of this series that I would listen to even by myself. That doesn't mean there won't be a few annoying songs on there somewhere, but hopefully they'll be scattered throughout with enough good stuff so that everyone is happy to listen.
That's why I got so excited about writing on this topic for 31 days - I've found so many good children's songs out there, I just can't wait to share them with you!
So get ready to blast those speakers over this next month as I introduce you to some of the best children's songs around - you'll be surprised at just how cool some of this music can be!
Are you tired of listening to the voice of Barney? Do you feel you'll go berserk if you hear "Baby Beluga" once more? Don't you wish there were some children's songs out there with a definite cool factor? Well, there are! In the meantime, what kid's songs top your "drive you batty" list? I'd love to hear - leave a comment or email me at lisahealy (at) outlook (dot) com.
