I don’t know lullabies

Cole really likes being sung to, which is no surprise, as I have a velvety smooth singing voice*. The problem? I really don’t know any kids songs, lullabys, what have you. When push comes to shove and I really want to win him over, I have resorted to singing this:

I reallty… REALLY need to learn some more songe before he can start singing this back to me.

Hey parents, what are you singing to your kids?

*Just kidding. I sound very much like Kermit the Frog when I sing.

  1. we sing a lot of Dave Matthews, Coldplay, and U2 to the poor boy :) We sing twinkle, twinkle little star, the wheels on the bus, head, shoulders, knees and toes, too many monkeys jumping on the bed, and we make up a ton of songs. Nicholas seems to like it, I don’t think it matters what you sing, you could probably sing baby got back to him and he wouldn’t care as long as it’s you guys singing to him. :)

  2. I sing all of the above and ants go marching, From time to time I also used to sing the melodies of my favorite songs with my own words about our days together…..it makes the kids smike still!

  3. Ah past that stage now where I would listen to any song available other than their favorite two songs on repeat 24/7 so long that you catch yourself humming it in your sleep. O Brother Where Art Thou is a great movie too by the way.
