Please recommend your favorite kid's music

[Anonymous]

My daughter is only 8 months old, but I want to start collecting some good children's music that my DH and I could possibly enjoy as well (i.e. I heard the Jack Johnson Curious George soundtrack is good).

Any recommendations?

Thanks!

The Laurie Berkner Band!

Am I the only one who hates Laurie Berkner?

ANyhow, I really like Nancy Cassidy. Also, he gets made fun of but I enjoy Raffi (as do my kids)

However, I think everyone's favorites are the CD's we get from Music Together. Take a class with your DD, and you'll have active motions and memories to go with the music.

Peter Paul and Mary (think classics like Puff the Magic Dragon)
and I second Music Together and Philadelphia Chickens. I am also not a Laurie Berkner fan; to each their own.

My kids love the Jack Johnson Curious George soundtrack. And I do too.

I can't stand most "kids" music.

The also like Sound of Music, Mary Poppins, Lion King and other Disney classics.

The Land of Nod CDs are great; through those I found my absolute favorite artist -- Elizabeth Mitchell -- get her album, it's just beautiful. Also, my daughter loves the Bruce Springstreen album of Pete Seeger covers, I think it's called "the Seeger Sessions' or something like that. It's basically all folk tunes.
