He hated tummy time and therefore we hate tummy time. Watching him writhe around and cry for the sake of tummy time is my least favorite activity. So here's the song we made up to make it a bit less painful (please sing to the tune of row row row your boat)...<br />"I like tummy time, youoo like it too<br />Play play play play that is what we do"<br />REPEATThe Meditz Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02880944815169478797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326010555125554881.post-49161767399080373202010-03-12T12:26:54.430-08:002010-03-12T12:26:54.430-08:00So cool!

My son, Sam, has been listening to "Dreamland" from Putumayo since he was born EVERYNIGHT. I like to think it is magic and makes him sleep 10min longer in the morning!<br />My favorite lullaby CD is from Jack Johnson,<br />"Sing-A-Longs & Lullabies For The Film Curious George" He has a dreamy voice.Mindy Galoobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13531657531969247590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326010555125554881.post-77783922345788440902010-03-11T12:58:25.684-08:002010-03-11T12:58:25.684-08:00You know my favorite song to sing but it's not...You know my favorite song to sing but it's not for bedtime. <br />Finn is wearing jeans today jeans today all day long!

Now my grandchildren need a song before they can get to sleep. Kids like macabre things, like "Where have all the flowers gone?"<br />This is an all time favorite at my house:<br /><br />Mama's little baby loves shortnin' shortnin'<br />Mama's little baby loves shortnin' bread.<br />Two little babies, lying in the bed,<br />One of 'ems sick and the other ones dead.<br />Called up the doctor, the doctor said,<br />Feed them babies shortnin' bread.<br /><br />I know, why on earth? My song bank just ran dry one night, that's why. But hey, it's no worse than the "Now I lay me down to sleep prayer", or "Rock-a-Bye Baby". I mean who hangs a baby up in a tree, one with a weak branch no less?<br /><br />I hope your winner enjoys the CD.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326010555125554881.post-40781633564993137272010-03-11T05:11:18.912-08:002010-03-11T05:11:18.912-08:00Remember my dad singing lullabies in Yiddish to me...Remember my dad singing lullabies in Yiddish to me way off-key.

Music seems to be one of her first loves, and I had already thought of purchasing this CD but am on a budget (teacher turned stay at home mom). Thanks for offering this!

I tried Wheels on the Bus, America the Beautiful, etc - she just screamed louder. Now that she can talk (and she's pretty articulate for a 4 year old) she says "Mommy, I don't like it when you sing. Please stop."

He has a CD player in his bedroom and he loves to turn it on right before bed.<br /><br />That wasn't particularly clever but it's all I have. :)CaneWifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17687878894131674539noreply@blogger.com
