I love music! Even more, I love sharing music with Bear my kids. As a former preschool teacher, I’ve had some favorite CDs for kids. But, being a momma and having to listen to the same few CDs over and over again began to wear on my ears even though I loved them. So I became motivated to add to our children’s music collection. Many of them stemmed from shows that the kids were interested in.
Here are our 12 favorite albums for kids:
Miss Laurie’s music was the first that Bear ever sang along with. That’s just one of the reasons why I love her so. our favorite CD of hers is
Our most memorable Movers moment…We were dancing in Bear’s room to Bounce from In a Big Warehouse
At one of my old preschools, we used to do morning large motor to several cds. One of them was to Hap’s “I’m a Pretzel” and “The Rock & Roll Freeze Dance” songs from So Big
VeggieTales
I’m not sure how they came into our lives, but it was a great moment in my history as a mom. Their cds
Not to mention the fun song names like Nicky Nacky Nocky Noo and Di Dicki Do Dum from the Dance Party
disc.
is probably my most favorite song of his as it says, “One world, one home… one world home for everyone. One dream, one song…one song heard by everyone.”
is a fairly new find for me. And I don’t even recall how I stumbled upon them. I adore the song “Covered in Bandaids” and love how the topics of children’s imaginations is covered in “Invisible Friend.” It has a lot of resonance with me as Jetta {Bear’s imaginary friend} still holds a place at our dinner table.
in a theatre with Bear warmed my heart. But then it got cancelled = total bummer. But it seemed I was more disappointed than Bear was.
usually has a theme of working together and overcoming obstacles, that’s great for little ones to hear. They’re another band that I would love to see in concert. But we missed them when they came to our city.
, has songs that touch on life points that kids can connect with. Plus it’s a bonus that I appreciate him as a star that does comedy geared towards adults, so it’s a win-win situation.
Ziggy Marley
It’s no secret that Bob Marley is a cornerstone in music. The musical talent that’s passed down to his son Ziggy is clear in Family Time
Their Kids in Motion
The amazingly talented Deborah Stewart from Teach Preschool also has a cd for kids called Simple Songs for Preschool.
