Comment:

Getting a song to stick in the memories of moppets isn’t rocket science — kids love to let their lungs loose and holler, howl, or whatever else their little pipes can muster. All you have to do to get them going is send the right songs in the direction of their eardrums. Easy enough, right? You bet, especially since we’ve handpicked a perfect batch of musical companions for children to chime in with. Some seem like no-brainers — pretty much anything from Dan Zanes, the Raffi of rockers, is sure to get the kids crowing, but we’ve tapped some surprising sources too. Along the way, everybody from Bruce Springsteen to Joni Mitchell joins in the fun, with kid-friendly cuts that will have the whole mishpucha singing along with all their might.
