Comment:

A mix of mostly-kid-friendly indie rock et al. that I gave to my cousin and her husband a year ago to celebrate the birth of their first child. I mean, I had no dubious pretenses that they'd play it over his crib or anything, but say he stumbles across it in his dad's collection in ten years... ;)

It's an image from Tom Waits' video for "I Don't Wanna Grow Up."

Nice. I'm always trying to introduce my almost 4 yr-old daughter to my music - and she actually recognizes songs now, as well as band names.

Lots of beautiful songs on this. That kid will hopefully have amazing taste in music and be the coolest kid in fifth grade.

I did a similar mix; it was a lot of fun. This looks really great... it should steer him in the right direction.
