Lullabies and Music Appreciation

Still playing the lullabies at bedtime and naptime. We have just over a hundred on the Ipod that we begin playing in order when they go to bed. We started for the soothing, comforting effect, and then also to mask other noises that might keep them alert rather than falling asleep. Also, we hope it develops an appreciation of classical music.

At dinner every night we play the music channel on cable television; trying to mix it up with all genres: rock to gospel, show tunes to reggae, bluegrass to big band.
