Daily Musical Interludes

They say music can soothe the savage beast. Well, I know at the very least it can help keep a two-year old child entertained.

For the last two years I have come to appreciate children’s music. No, not songs like “This Old Man” or “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”. While those are staples in the repertoire of the children’s category, they are just so yesterday. No I’m talking modern children’s music.

Groups like the Laurie Berkner Band, Audra Rocks, and The Fresh Beat Band are some of the favorites of my house. When we crank up some Music for Aardvarks or Steve Burns there’s just no stopping the head bopping. And, really, who cannot resist singing along with The Quiet Twos or Moose A. Moose?

You have no clue what I’m talking about, right? Sure, I see you shaking your heads in wonderment of my sanity. Really, though, you just don’t know what you’re missing.

So to my friends, those that I know, and those that I may come to know, I give you a dose of my daily musical interludes. You may have to listen to them a couple of times to understand their true effect. Don’t worry it’s really quite painless, but I’m afraid you might find yourself singing to yourselves later.
