Kid's music makes me crazy. I am not a fan. Granted, Archie is only 10 months old so we haven't really delved into the world of the Wiggles and whatnot, but I am going to try my hardest to avoid that for as long as possible. I read this article about music for kids the other day and it has stuck in my mind. The little guy has his own playlist that we play all day and sing along and dance to. He bops his little head and wiggles his bum. I have tried to choose music with simple melodies and easy lyrics. Thankfully my epic collection of early 60s and Motown music is perfect for little ears. He also loves Feist, Lily Allen and First Aid Kit. Here are some of Archie's faves:
