A two hour long car ride with my infant nephews was my call to action to make this mix. The music they manufacture for little kids is AWFUL!! I decided to create something that the kids would enjoy and wouldn't make their parents crazy. A nice little stocking-stuffer, in my opinion... :) Happy Holidays

Very nice. Some very interesting selections here. I especially like the Les Paul and Mary Ford number.

"Contact" by Phish would be another one that would be great... "The tires are the things on your car that make contact with the road..."

Excellent choices -- my 6-year-old son loves BWW's "I Want Candy" and the Beatles! Where is "Who Let the Dogs Out?" though?
