Why can't she listen to the music that you listen to? I have never understood this. My child loves classic rock. She loves 80s music. She's pretty into the pop music of now. We listen to everything in our family and I'm pretty sure that the only "kids music" that she is into is the Frozen soundtrack.

OP Here - Yep, I think this is what we'll end up doing. Most of what DH likes though will most likely be off limits, but we should be able to find some classic rock that she'll enjoy.[/quote]

I was hoping the same, but it hasn't quite worked out that way. I don't know if it's the lyrics or what, but my kids (3 & 5) definitely request real 'kids' music ever since I let them listen to a CD or two of it. The best I've been able to do is make some themed mixes about topics they are interested in with adult songs (think Springstein and train songs). Kid's CD I've found more tolerable include the Boyton Dog Train CD (the others were kind of grating and even Dog Train has some songs I try to skip) and They Might Be Giants.  [/quote]

I agree-- we started out that way but at the really young ages my kids didn't really like even "easy" pop music.  I have friends whose kids were raised on punk so YMMV.[/quote]
