Rocking with baby (or small child)


I have a new favourite thing!  Yup, something else that for the time being I just can't live without.  Well, okay maybe I could do without it, but it's pretty cool and it makes my daughter happy.  Need I say more?  It pacifies my three year old!  While we were in Vegas at the ABC Kids Show Meg and I checked out tonnes of cool products.  We're always looking for gear that is functional and practical, well you can imagine how excited we were to come across Rockabye Baby CD's.  Featuring the music of many popular artists such as U2, Coldplay, Bob Marley, ACDC, Metallica and more (yes Metallica) performed using baby and child friendly instruments like glockenspiels, vibraphones and mellotrons.  All the music is so calm and soothing everyone will mellow out and in most cases, head off to dreamland.  I was even happier to learn that my local Kindermusik Director had found them and written about them in her November Newsletter.  For those of you who are unfamiliar with Kindermusik, it is a wonderful program for you and your child.  We started in the village program when Fin was just a baby and are still active in the Our Time Program at three.  We always had a great time and Fin loves the music!  For more info visit www.kindermusikcambridge.com  I believe they also offer free trial classes too!  We've got the Rockabye Baby CD's here at the store or shop online.  There is even a Christmas Classics CD, drop by and pick one up!
