we are getting ready for some traveling by car and i was wondering if you had any good recommendations for music. i was wanting something fun, singalongable, and good quality. if it is educational too, thats great. but mostly i want music we all like and wont get annoying after 10 minutes. maybe some spanish songs? kid friendly musicals? folk songs? irish songs? the kids cds i like are elizabeth mitchell, and laurie berkner, but i know there are other good things out there

One we like is Go Fish.. they're protestant so there's a song here or there that I might *not* transfer to the MP3 for listening  but most of it isn't that specific. You can listen to clips at their website.. and some of their songs are on you tube (Christmas with a Capital C is one of their's)

I will have to get the Trout Fishing in America cds from the library for sure now.
My 4year old has a shirt of theirs that we got of off freecycle--I didn't even know it was a band or anything until recently when someone mentioned it while he was wearing it. We told him what his shirt says, and he refers to it as his "United States Fish Shirt."

Don't miss They Might Be Giants' album "No!"
I have a list of "Truly Good Kids' Music" on my blog that you might find helpful, scroll down to the bottom of the right sidebar.

ALL my kids love "They Might Be Giants" cds - but be forewarned - you won't be able to get the songs out of your head!
