What children's songs do you like to sing to your LO?
My favorite is "You Are My Sunshine". And I just watched a Youtube video today to learn the rest of "Rubber Duckie" (I only knew the first line!).
-
Hahaha I just googled the rubber ducky lyrics. I was waaay off
I try to play a lot of Korean songs for her. She loves this one about an island baby
-
I sing to her some lullabies, and lots and lots of Christmas songs.
-
I sing anything that comes to my mind, the soundtrack from Annie, church songs, anything.
-
- Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star
- Baa Baa Black Sheep
- ABCD...They all have the same tune!
-
My "go to" songs are Twinkle Twinkle and Row Your Boat. My son loves Wheels on the Bus so I sing that one to him. Usually I just make up my own songs on the fly.
-
Oh man I don't know that many children's songs! I need to learn more. I rotate twinkle twinkle little star, you are my sunshine, and row row your boat over and over again lol
-
I'm still only pregnant, but for some reason I've been obsessed with singing "Dream A Little Dream of Me" to my belly!
-
Our LO is in utero, but so far we sing Jingle Bells and Soft Kitty quite a bit.
-
In addition to some mentioned above:
Old macdonald had a farm
Mary had a little lamb
Frere Jacques
Itsy bitsy spider
Baby beluga
Hokey Pokey -
Aside from some of the above, I'm a Little Teapot, Down By The Bay, Doe a Deer. Also, lots of Korean children's songs.
@NerdBee: LO loooves itsy bitsy spider, especially when i dance my fingers on her stomach.
@MungBean: I have a piano book of old Korean children's songs that i had when i was a kid. Thankfully my parents never gave it away! Do you know "Dda dda dda"? LO loves it!

Skitta-marink-a-dink-a-dink
prob my fave! -
I do 'head shoulders knees and toes' with them on my lap a lot
and rock them to sleep with 'my bonnie lies over the ocean'.
-
@caffeinated: ooh! I gotta add some of yours to my repertoire. I don't think LO minds when I repeat songs but I get a little bored
-
@NerdBee: I know what you mean. I think i sang "Down By The Bay" like 20 times one day...the good thing about it is i can make up stupid verses like, "have you ever seen a kitten, wearing fuzzy mittens?" or "have you ever seen a donkey, being trained by a monkey?" hahaha...but yeah, it gets boring after a while!
-
LO loves Baby Beluga and I've also started singing Down By The Bay and You Are My Sunshine more.
@caffeinated: I make up words to that song too! DH and I also take random songs and make up fun lyrics with her.
-
@caffeinated: no, I don't think I know that one! I tried googling it but nothing came up...how does it go?
