Final Thought:
One of my kids’ favorite moments of the day is dancing with mom and dad in the living room. While those times can turn into nightly dance parties, during the day when it’s just the three of us amigos and dad is away, it’s so nice to find some fun, folksy, and sweet music. Luckily all of these songs fit that bill!
You really can’t go wrong with wonderful artists like Elizabeth Mitchell, Caspar Babypants, or Charlie Hope. Each artist has their unique flair and sound, but all are equally enjoyable! There are many other great artists, and I’m currently working on a “Best Enjoyable Songs for Kids Vol. 2” and a “Get Up and Move with Kids” playlist for those nights when you need to work out some major energy. Be on the lookout for those soon!
I hope this list has given you such great choices to enjoy with your little ones on the next car ride or just background noise in your every day! Don’t forget to subscribe to The Blooming Mama Blog for more fun biweekly reads sent right into your inbox!
As always, Hugs Mama, you are doing a great job!
